A while ago when I managed to hang out at olllllo's for a bit we drank an Allagash Tripel Reserve, which everyone present agreed. The fantastic fruity spicy profiles mixed in with some complex malt characters while still being highly drinkable was quite a treat. Sadly we forgot to capture the yeast that day to culture up for use.
Recently I got my hands on a bottle of Allagash Tripel Reserve and I made it a point to capture the yeast and culture it up for future brews. I started kicking around some recipes for a tripel and then I had a thought, why not turn it into a Golden quad based on my delicious dark quad, The Pious Traditional. I thought it was a great idea and so The Devout was born.
Take The Pious Traditional recipe, sub out some granulated beet sugar for the D2, and use the Allagash yeast instead of the Westmalle yeast and BAM! Golden quad.
