The pinnacle of our Belgian-style obsession, Mør Mør, is a Belgian Quad brewed traditionally simplistic. Using only base malt, Belgian candi sugar, noble hops and our Belgian house yeast, the results culminate into something delicious and complex. Notes of vanilla and anise give way to an onslaught of smooth, velvety caramel and plum.

It smells like funky yeast and deep dark fruits like a lot of quads
It's tastes sweet and funky with warming spices.
It has medium body with just a little carbonation. The finish is dank, sweet and then bitter.
Really good dark quad, just really well defined flavors. Overall I give it a 4.7 out of 6.

Very dark amber body, nearly brown; mild turbidity; lively carbonation; thick, light khaki head, nice retention. Nice aroma; sweet with some dark grain notes; spicy and nutty. Super taste; malty and spicy with low bitterness; raisins and cola; brown sugar and anise; mild to moderate booziness. Soft mouthfeel with sticky residual sugars; medium-heavy body; muted alcohol warmth that increases towards the finish.
The taste is phenomenal with this beer and truly brings the overall score to a higher level than the sum of its parts. It has it all - malty, spicy, nice alcohol kick. Well made and worthy of exploring.
Pouring temperature: F; canning data: GIMME MØR 11/2/21

Served from the can in a Lagunitas mason jar.
Pours a brackish garnet topped by a finger of dirty khaki foam. The nose comprises whole wheat bread, light clove, molasses, pine needles, and light stone fruits. The taste holds notes of old banana peel, clove, orange zest, prune, honeydew, and a few drops of honey. Things get decidedly harsh near the finish, as all of the flavors get wasted, crash their car, and cause the maiming deaths of dozens, some of them otherwise innocent. The body is a medium that's putting on some holiday pounds (or so we're being told), with a light moderate carbonation and a sorta/kinda drying finish. This one did not sit well with me: the flavors were already somewhat lacking to begin with, but once the late stages kick in, the beer had me briefly questioning my life choices.

Poured from fridge temp from a can. Pours with lots of head that sticks around. Color is dark brown with a reddish tint. Nose is candy, plums, blackberries, figs, toffee, yeast, and a bit of Christmas spice. Taste is really nice. Definitely a quad. Sweet and bready up front. Toffee, Belgian yeast, dark fruit, malts, and a bit of burnt wood. Maybe a touch of tobacco in there as well. Really well done and very reminiscent of the great quads of Belgium. Mouthfeel is creamy and thick. Aftertaste is sweet and malty. I will definitely seek more out.

Consumed: Jan. 11, 2020
Misc.: Canned on Nov. 6, 2019
Picked this up with four other singles and a Modern Times 4-pack at Windmill Farms. I’m kind of a sucker for quads, so I really wanted to pick this up, especially for the price of $3.79. Untappd description read, “The pinnacle of our Belgian-style obsession, Mør Mør, is a Belgian Quad brewed traditionally simplistic.

Notes of vanilla and anise give way to an onslaught of smooth, velvety caramel and plum.”
Poured a dark reddish brown color with three fingers of khaki white frothy head. Plenty of slow moving bubble streams coming up along the sides of the glass. Almost perfect spiderweb lacing. World-class retention. (Sight - 4.75)
Smelled caramel, plum, fig, date, raisin, Belgian candied sugar, red apple, Belgian clove and hints of Circus Peanut candy. Better out of the glass than the can. (Smell - 4.00)
Tasted at least as good as the nose, maybe better. In order got caramel, date, fig, plum, raisin, red apple, Belgian candied sugar, Circus Peanuts, brown sugar, clove and toasted wheat bread. (Taste - 4.00)
Medium body. Oily texture. Lively carbonation. Long finish. (Feel - 4.25)
An outstanding quad overall. Glad I got to try it. (Overall - 4.00)

Yeah, straight up, it’s not top tier like 76 super unleaded. It’s a little too basic, or even less than that. This one is like the kid in your piano class who always got it wrong. Sure, he hit a few correct keys here and there, but overall, he didn’t pass the class. And right here, in Mør Mør, well, forget world class. I guess maybe, on a good day I would call it average. It’s just too light like your bulimic sister. Yeah, who’s into that? If this one ate a full turkey dinner, it might be better. As for now... next!

Pint can poured into snifter type glass, the canned date of 11/6 makes it about 40 days ago.
Murky red/brown with a nice khaki layer of foam that sticks around and coats the glass well. Smells of Belgian yeast and dark fruits. Tastes of molasses, dark fruit and sourdough with a sweet finish - alcohol is present but not overbearing. Nicely balanced feel that is quite pleasant, especially as it warms.
My sense is that the brewers have changed things up and made significant strides since the earlier versions (some are seemingly impossible to relate to as compared to the current offering as I browsed other reviews going back), I'm enjoying this enough to go back for M0R :)

To be honest ,it just doesn't taste like much, and for a quad that's a big no no.

Bottled 9/13/12; drank 7/11/14 @ the Yarchives.
Brown/purple murkiness.
Khaki head; thick lace.
Plum, candle wax & booze nose.
Thick mouthfeel.
Red wine, dark fruit, wax & booze heat co-exist but still haven't coalesced almost 2 years in.
Not very good.
