This fruity stout is curiously creamy and deceptively big. Beneath the ashy and sweet fruit and nut aromas, black chocolate covered fruit cake flavors and a thick tongue coating texture place this beer firmly in the Imperial Stout category, but with a twist. A lengthy dryness grips the palate on the finish, yanking the taste buds in the same way a good Saison might. The dryness, prominent fruity nose, and Quadrupel evoking flavor profile confirm this beer's 'Belgian-style' labeling.
