Beers similar to Trabuca

Belgian Quadrupel·Spain·12% ABV·One of 12 Belgian Quadrupels in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Trabuca's rich and boozy character. Dark, malty and deep, with a liqueur-like body and a revealing presence. This quadrupel ages 40 months in oak barrels and then gets a second fermentation in the bottle. The brewery's style line calls it a mini-sour, extra barrel-aged quadrupel with no head, and has Trabuca rumble inside you with every sip. It is a limited edition.
