Belgian Quadrupel

Known as Monk’s Brew in the U.S. Monk’s Elixir is a heavy dark Belgian ale inspired by the Trappist monasteries of Rochefort and Westvleteren. The beer style, characterized by its high content of alcohol, distinguishes itself by its dominant yeast character, delicious malt background and balanced hop notes.

Плотно, фруктово, чуть суховато, ликерно, ванильно. Может быть, сладости чуть больше хотелось бы. Неожиданный топчик. Бутылка с 2015 года. Выдержка!

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a reddish brown with a big tan head and a sweet aroma of cherries, caramel and sugar syrup. The taste is sweet and a bit alcoholic, but surprisingly complex. There’s lots of sweet malts, with notes of toffee, dark chocolate, overripe f

RB backup. Jul 28 2015. Pours deep mahogany with beige head. Aroma is sweet dark fruits. Taste verges a bit far on the sweet side of a Belgian Dark Ale initially, but settles into familiar Chimay Bleu territory soon enough. Decent effort.

Clear dark reddish brown colour topped with a creamy beige foam. Sweet malty and fairly yeasty aroma of raisin, dades, vanilla, oak and spices. Full and rather vinous flavour of port, raisin, vanilla and alcohol.

[Backlog from Ratebeer, 2015] On tap. Thick aroma of malt, sugar and fruits. Taste is of malts, lots of darker fruits, vanilla, molasses & booze. Medium body and carbonation. Okay, I guess, but I didn’t love it. I think I expected a bit more body from it.
