Yakka Quadruple

◎ Aussehen

Deep reddish-brown with dark mahogany hues, the beer presents itself with appealing opacity from unfiltered conditioning. The collar builds with purpose and clings to the glass in a delicate lace pattern, speaking to a sturdy malt backbone and gentle carbonation.

◌ Aroma

The nose carries forward a fragrant medley of dark stone fruits—plum and raisin—mingled with subtle floral notes that suggest Trappist heritage without becoming perfumed. Underlying warmth from the yeast and a whisper of spice emerge as it opens, with soft bready grain notes grounding the profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters rich and full-bodied, with boozy warmth that declares the 11% ABV without aggression. Mid-palate reveals layered dark fruit, bready malt sweetness tempered by restrained hop bitterness and a gentle spiced character; the structure remains smooth despite its strength, never hot or cloying.

◑ Abgang

The finish unfolds long and warming, with lingering fruity and spiced notes balanced by a dry, subtle hop presence. A faint residual sweetness fades into contemplative dryness, leaving the palate ready for another sip.
