Quadrupel

A quadrupel is a term primarily used in brewing, describing a strong Belgian ale. Typically, it has an alcohol content ranging from 10% to 12% and features rich flavors, often including dark fruits, caramel, and spices. The name "quadrupel" refers to the brewing process, which usually involves four times the amount of malt compared to typical beers. This results in a complex, full-bodied beer with a deep amber or brown color. Quadrupels are usually enjoyed in moderation, often served in a snifter glass to enhance their aromatic qualities.
