El Catador first beer announced!

Forgotten Island, 15% ABV

"Deep brown to mahogany, this dark complex ale originated in Trappist monasteries throughout Belgium. It was sipped by Trappist monks during fasting and Winter months. Quadrupel is the strongest denomination of monastic beer. It shadows tripel, dubbel and single styles of Belgian ale, many of which were produced at Trappist monasteries as well. Forgotten Island is aged in Appleton rum barrels, originating from Jamaica. This distillery makes the oldest barrel-aged rum in the world. The barrel lends notes of vanilla, molasses, orange peel, cocoa, brown sugar, nutmeg, hazelnut, apricot and peach. This plethora of flavors and aromas from the rum barrels intermingles with banana, clove, cinnamon, fig, plum and brown sugar aromatics and flavors from the quadrupel, creating a crescendo of elegance in a long flavorful finale."
