Quadrophenia

◎ Aussehen

Light brown with deep amber undertones, displaying the characteristic clarity expected of a well-crafted quadrupel. The head forms densely and clings to the glass with persistent lacing, while gentle carbonation creates a fine bead that rises steadily through the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with dried stone fruits—figs and prunes dominate, supported by caramel notes from the burnt sugar and malt foundation. A subtle Belgian yeast character adds earthiness and spice, while a whisper of peach and passion fruit emerges from the Galaxy hops, creating a complex yet harmonious bouquet.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is full and rounded, with dark fruit flavors anchoring the initial impression. Burnt sugar and malt sweetness carry through the mid-palate, building a rich mouthfeel, while tropical notes from the Galaxy hops add brightness and definition. Bitterness remains restrained at 18 IBU, allowing the malt and yeast complexity to shine without obstruction.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and warming, with peach and passion fruit notes lingering pleasantly on the palate. A gentle spice from the Belgian yeast and a faint drying sensation from the malt round out the aftertaste without harshness.
