Quadrophenia
Dried fruit like figs and prunes runs through this traditional quadrupel, with a little peach and passion fruit in the finish from a pinch of Galaxy hops. Balance comes from malt, burnt sugar and Belgian yeast. Van Moll made it with only malt, hop, water and dark Belgian sugars, 10.2% ABV, light brown at 56 EBC and 18 IBU.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Quadrophenia
Serve at 12–14°C. This is a contemplative beer — warmth unlocks the dark fruit, caramel and complex malt.
The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.
Built for cellaring. Age 2–5 years for deeper complexity. Store upright at 12–16°C.
