The brewery is well-known for its "huge taste" beers. Most of their brews are high in alcohol, with QUAD clocking in at 11.8% alcohol by volume, and a one-off 10th anniversary ale called Decadence brewed to 13% alcohol by volume.

Horrible Thirst Quenching Ability
Not Refreshing
"Desert Beer" Balance

One of the top stouts I have drank, it was a mellow stout for a 11.8% ABV. The flavor is a heavy malty and is definitely on the sweet side. The clean and creamy feel tingled along the sides of the mouth from first quaff to last. Leathers, dense fudged plum in the middle fits in and out. Chocolate notes finished this beer out underneath.
