Grimbergen Cuvée Réserve Quadruple

◎ Aussehen

Deep mahogany hue with excellent clarity and luminosity. A creamy, cappuccino-coloured head forms immediately and clings to the glass with fine retention and delicate lacing. The carbonation is refined, producing a steady stream of small bubbles that sustains the foam structure throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose is rich and layered, opening with pronounced caramel and dried stone fruit notes that suggest macerated plum and fig. Supporting these are roasted malt undertones, liquorice, and a subtle smoky edge that adds complexity without dominating. The overall impression is warming and intricately balanced between sweet and earthy character.

◐ Geschmack

On the palate, macerated fruit and toasted caramel lead the entry, followed by smoke and subtle roast that build in the mid-palate. Bitterness and residual sweetness are well-proportioned, creating equilibrium without either dominating. The fine carbonation carries all elements cleanly across the tongue, with a polished, full-bodied mouthfeel.

◑ Abgang

The finish is lingering and warming, with roast-sweet notes and liquorice persisting comfortably on the palate. A gentle alcohol warmth emerges as the beer fades, leaving a dry, pleasant aftertaste.

Bei 12–14°C servieren. Ein kontemplatives Bier — Wärme erschließt dunkle Frucht, Karamell und komplexes Malz.

Das breite Mundstück und der schwere Fuß fördern die Schaumbildung und leiten reiche Aromatik zur Nase. Traditionell für belgische Starkbiere.
