Bryghuset Braunstein

Quadrupel·Denmark·One of 57 Quadrupels in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Dragonfly Girl with Red Ballon's fruity and spicy character. Lightly sweet with a gentle spiciness from the cognac casks; the malt caresses the palate, accompanied by low bitterness, and the strength is barely noticeable. This organic quadrupel is dark golden with a silky mouthfeel and brings Belgian brewing tradition together with the noble character of cognac casks. Hopped with Bramling Cross (berries, citrus) and Huell Melon (honeydew melon, strawberry).
