Deep amber pour; off white head; ok cap retention; some soapy lace; lots of yeast floaties. Caramel nose. Entry is caramel, then fig, orange peel and coriander. Medium full body; light carbonation; no warmth from 11%abv. An ok quad style; one and done.

Dark brown color, strong alcohol, overly sweet flavor with dried fruits.
Already tried two times with two different batches.
The level of carbonation was so low that the beer looked like an alcoholic tea.
Got sick of drinking before I finish the bottle.

A: Pours a dark Brown/amber body with a creamy colored head with good retention.
S: Grapes and a little alcohol in the beggining, then when it get a little warmed up it changes into some dried lemon because it brettanomyce yeast that reminds me of Orval.
T:Follows the nose with a strong grape in the palate with a mild bitterness following the fruit flavors. Again when it warm up it tastes more citric and even the bitterness improves. I strongly recommend to get this beer cold and drinking it slowly till it warms to enjoy every note that this wonderful beer have.
M: With a dense but smooth body, good carbonation and a well hidden 11% abv, this beer is like a liquor or wine to the mouth.
O: I found myself impressed by Wäls Quadrupel, in the beginning it felt it was a utterly simple and no special beer, but as its getting warmed the true beer showed up. I have many criticism to abbey beers, because I really love the "real"trappistes" beer, but Wäls proved to me that us brazilians can do complex and good beers, and that the abbey beers can be good as real trappists.

Bottle purchased at Nathaniel Square Corner Store in Rochester, NY.
Pours a hazy amber brown, with a small 1/4 inch head that immediately recedes to a film on top of the beer. Only a little bit of lacing. Lots of sediment.
Smells strongly of brown sugar, rum, chocolate and vanilla.
This one tastes pretty good. Some oaky bitterness, vanilla, caramel, brown sugar, rum (I suppose it's cachaca, but I've never tasted it before, and it seems fairly close to rum), a bit of pine. Gets much better as it warms, revealing stronger vanilla and plum flavors.
Medium bodied, creamy, slightly sticky mouthfeel, with a very low amount of carbonation.
This one's awesome- with the strong caramel/brown sugar/vanilla flavors, it seems a little bit more like a barleywine, but that's ok, since the quad/BSDA style is so wide open anyway. Doesn't matter what it is, it's tasty, and shows that Brazil can crank out some tasty brews.
