Description: BATCH 14 (blended on 24 June 2013) was distributed as follows: Type in BATCH Limousine barrels with Cognac 82% New Oak wooden barrels 11% Acacia wood 7% The aroma is dominated by cognac, with hints of flowers, prunes, grapes, almond, vanilla and, of course, slightly burnt wood. In the background we can still distinguish the regular and famous Quadrupel flavour. On the palate, warmth and the grape fruitiness of cognac. Then follows that of sweets. This is not at all disturbing in this batch, on the contrary, it provides an exciting component to the beer as a whole. It’s still a beer and as such it has a specific bitterness. In this case, it is dominated by the wood tannins. The finish is oaky, malty and, finally, speaks of grape. A beautiful marriage of Quadrupel and Cognac from start to finish.
