Perfection

Deep, list dark brown color; creamy large head that quickly thins. Complex nose- dark fruits, malt. Potent, heady alcohol, but not overwhelming. Complex, exciting brew. potent, but not overwhelming.

So called best beer in the world. 4 1/2 stars. Good full of Raisin and malt sugars but well balanced. Pinkies out!

It's like liquid candied figs, super smooth and drinkable, if only it weren't impossible to find

5 month old bottle. Very carbonated on the pour. Foamy darker white head. Dark brown color typical of quads. Definitely getting huge dark fruits like plums and the candy Belgium flavor. Getting a little bit of the chocolate flavor like from RIS's. Solid quad.

Although this beer is good, the hype is a little too much. Yea, it's BA no. 1 beer, but there are other Trappist Quads that easily measure up to this...

Although quads aren't my favorite style, this was enjoyable!

Wow. My first bottle from the precious brick. Very complex flavor. Tall head in beer flute, shorter in IPA glass. Cocoa and unsweet orange in the nose. taste is Overtones of coffee, soft resin, pear and molasses. Soft carbonation on palate, smooth texture and fruity aftertaste. Strong sweet alcohol taste. Lovely.
