A 750ml bottle, 2013 vintage, cask strength limited edition, bottled on 21st June 2016. Poured into a Chimay goblet glass.
Appearance: A hazy dark brown colour with pretty much no head and no lacing.
Aroma: Sweet malt, dark fruit, prunes, raisin, brown sugar, caramel, bourbon, with a hint of dark chocolate.
Taste: Sweet malt, caramel, slightly burnt sugar, brown sugar, dark fruit, prunes, raisin, bourbon, chocolate, lightly bitter finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium to full bodied with soft carbonation.
Overall: Aroma and flavours were nice, but carbonation was definitely lacking for me. If only it had the ‘medium carbonation’ as stated on the label…

Bottle at Doug’s. Dark amber, small ring of head. Aroma is strong and sharp. Musty, leaves. Tea. Gets a bit boozy towards the finish. A bit drier and dirtier than the norm, but still pretty good.

750 mL bottle. Pours with an enormous off-white head. Smells of bread, dark fruit, bananas, some spice, some sweet fruitiness. Tastes of bready malts, sweet caramel and dark fruits. Less spice. Maybe some oak? Sharp and tannic aftertaste. High carbonation. I get no barrel. I would like to have this next to regular St. Amatus to know what's different about it. No barrel, but I still think it's a good quad.
