Boom Island Quad

Boom Island Quad. 10.2% ABV. 21 IBU. Boom Island Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.

Dark, burgundy-hued, slim head.

In the nose: sweet & malty, toffee & caramel. Never too anything, but quite nice. 

In the mouth: deep, rich, malty-sweet and quite delicious. Cocoa, caramel, molasses, oak. Doesn’t go as far as it could, barely gets into the peculiar Belgian character, but I can’t help but like it.
Very warming and agreeable.Very tasty. Quite nice.

(Note: this is a sample bottle from the brewery. You'll find your retail version available in big ol' bomber form.)

Our Quadrupel is based on centuries old
Trappist traditions in Belgium.
