Abnormal

This Belgian Quad sat in Templeton Rye Whiskey barrels for over a year and what came out was closer to a bramble than a whiskey barrel-aged beer. So we decided to accent those flavors and add blackberries with some golden raisins to create a beer that really reminds you of the cocktail. Whiskey and dark fruits come through on the nose and finish with rich raisins and a lingering fresh muttled blackberry tone. The booziness is very balanced from the sweetness the added fruit contributes. Perfect for sitting around the fire this holiday season.

Old Fashioned, no this is Quad Fashioned! This is our 3rd edition of the cocktail series of beers we have toyed around with here at Abnormal Beer Co., and it is meant to emulate one of the most classic libations. The whiskey character that the barrel lent to this Belgian Quad is intense and wonderful so we wanted to play off the fact that the beer drinks like some good sippin’ whiskey. We then let the luscious liquid from the barrels sit on some dried orange slices and Montmorency cherries until we had what we wanted. If you like whiskey like us but don’t want to drink it straight, you will probably order an old fashioned. This beer will get you there without any mixing involved. Pop the top, pour into your favorite glass, and enjoy!
