3.9/5

AROMA
8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20

12 ounce bottle into tulip. Pours slightly cloudy red-orange color with a 1.5 finger foamy off white head with decent retention. Very minimal glass lacing. Aromas of cherries, banana, dried fruits, candi sugar, and vanilla; with a bit of spices and alcohol. Taste of banana, dark fruits, candi sugar, and some caramel; with light spices and a bit of bourbon. Very sweet flavor with no bitterness noticed at all. The finish is fairly dry, with only a small bit of lingering sweetness. Incredibly smooth finish with no alcohol noticed except for a slight warming with a light alcohol bite after the finish. I was extremely surprised at the smoothness for it’s alcohol content. Medium carbonation and creamy full body. Overall, this quad was quite impressive, though not very complex, it has a very nice flavor balance with a very smooth drinkability for its alcohol level.

This definitely was a surprisingly good Quad. I was hoping to not get a booze bomb like with the Blithering Idiot, and I did not.
