Belgian Dark Strong Ale 10.3 º

Wander Beyond Brewing

This Belgian Dark Strong Ale presents a decadent sensory profile, capturing the essence of a classic Quadruple with a deliberate spiced twist. Before it reaches the barrel, this base beer radiates deep aromas of toffee and bready-toasty malts, intertwined with a rich tapestry of plums, raisins, and dried cherries. On the palate, a lush, full-bodied texture delivers concentrated flavors of dark fruit and caramelized sugars, balanced by a subtle, warming alcohol presence. The brewer’s addition of light spices complements the yeast-driven phenols, leading to a smooth, complex finish that lingers with a gentle, comforting heat and deep malt complexity.

Appearance. Deep coppery-brown with excellent clarity. It supports a massive, dense, and persistent light tan head that leaves intricate lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity aroma featuring a complex blend of rich toffee and bready malt. Strong esters of plums, figs, and dried cherries are prominent, supported by a low, spicy phenol character and a soft, perfumy alcohol note.

Taste. Initial impression is malty richness, showcasing deep toffee and caramelized sugar. Mid-palate flavors of dark plums and raisins merge with a subtle, intentional spice character. Bitterness is medium-low, allowing the malt and high alcohol to provide balance. The finish is moderately sweet and smooth, with a harmonious, lingering fruitiness.

Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and creamy with a velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a lift that prevents the beer from feeling syrupy. A significant, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, providing a soothing sensation.
