Quads or Quadrupels usually range from 9%-13% and are a style of dark ale. Inspired by Trappist brewers from Belgium, Quads have bolder flavors than Dubbels and Tripels.
Here are some PA Quads to seek out!
Quad – Weyerbacher
ABV: 11.8%
A dark ale, pour this in a snifter or wine glass. This beer is at its best after 12 months in the bottle, and will gain smoothness and complexity over time.
Ella – Free Will
ABV: 12.8%
Aged in apple brandy barrels for a year, Ella has notes of fig, apple, and raisins, as well as vanilla and molasses with a sweet finish.
