I have not had this Ale since the old white label. From what
I can remember is that I really liked this Quad. They recommend ‘to not disturb the yeast
sediment,’ when pouring.
Appearance: brownish-copper color body with a two finger
light tan head that leaves some sticky lacing; sheets of lacing with each sip
that leaves spotty lacing on the glass
Aroma: rich sweet malts; dry dark fruits; touch of cherry;
Belgian yeast
Flavors: follows the nose with the rich sweet malts; dark
sweet fruits – sweetened raisins; touch of cherry to cut the sweetness; earthy
yeast; hint of nuts – pecan meat and shell; nice alcohol spice – not boozy to
me;
Mouthfeel: slight creamy feel; light syrupy feel; thick
chewing brown bread; firm carbonation; sweet but not overbearing; light
bitterness; nice complexity; moderate alcohol warmth; this is a sipper
