À propos

Queen of the Dark is a Quadrupel from Brouwerij Huyghe in Melle, Belgium, brewed at a robust 11% ABV. This dark, layered ale showcases the brewery's mastery of Belgian strong ales, combining deep malt character with the fruity complexity typical of the style. The beer presents a deep brown colour with a dense head. The nose reveals soft fruity notes alongside hints of dark fruit and subtle spice. On the palate, a full and rounded character emerges, with caramel and chocolate tones balanced by a gentle bitterness that builds throughout the tasting. The finish is strong and lingering, ending dry and bitter. The alcohol warmth develops gradually, making this a contemplative beer best enjoyed slowly and savoured for its depth and balance.
