La Trappe Quadrupel Oak Aged Batch #16 | Bierbrouwerij De Koningshoeven
ABV: 10.0%
IBU: 40
Style: Belgian Quadrupel
Out of Production
Description: BATCH 16 (blended in March 2014) was distributed as follows: Type in BATCH Brandy 37% Oloroso 27% New Oak Medium Toast 12% New Oak High Toast 12% Late Burgundy 12% This Quadrupel Oak Aged has a deep-bronze colour topped with an amber head. Its aroma is defined by mixed wood and honey notes. These are followed by vinous flavours with a lingering port- or sherry-like scent. The taste is quite smooth and full. For a Quadrupel this batch is rather dry and well-rounded as a result of a long maturing period in oak or acacia barrels. A two-year aging period is sufficient even if the full taste of this batch, if properly stored, warrants a good couple of years of enjoyability. Besides the effects exerted by red wine and brandy barrels, this Oak Aged also underwent Oloroso influences. The hop taste has all but vanished, but wood and wine tannins have left an agreeable bitter flavour.
