Pure perfection. High Belgian esters backed with caramel. Too bad Shelton Bros folded.

2017 bottling *poured a bit cloudy from recent transfer to fridge - I might have given it a few more days to sit. Nevertheless even poured cold this is really beautiful at first sip. Still waiting on the nose to warm the initial flavor is >

Strong and fruity with a very Belgian aftertaste and ends just a little bitter. Very solid beer!

Been holding onto this bottle for a couple years now… finally opened it up. Super tasty, very mellow for a 10%. Reminds me a lot of Westvleteren 🔥

Belgian quadrupel greatly put together. Spicy, yeasty, caramelly, malty, with dried fruit notes and hop bitterness at the end. Yepp. Good one.

Ağır ama güzel; boş yere alkol ağırlığı vermiyor. Oldukça tatlı çikolata-vari bir tadı var kahveye benzettiğim esintilerle. Ben çok beğendim Belçika karakteri kendini belli ediyor. (Yeni Duvel bardağı da yakıştı :) )
