'''Quadrupel''' is the brand name of a strong seasonal [[beer]] ''La Trappe Quadrupel'' brewed by [[De Koningshoeven Brewery]] in the [[Netherlands]], one of the four [[Trappist]] brewing [[abbeys]] not in [[Belgium]] (the others are the [[Engelszell Abbey]] in [[Austria]], [[Spencer Abbey]] in [[the United States]], and Zundert from [[Maria Toevlucht Abbey]] in [[the Netherlands]]). In other countries, particularly the [[United States]], 'quadrupel' or 'quad' may refer to an especially strong style of dark [[ale]], with a characteristic spicy, ripe fruit flavor.<ref>[http://www.chow.com/food-news/54755/belgian-beer-primer/ "Belgian Beer Primer"] Chow.com</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newglarusbrewing.com/index.cfm/beers/ourbeers/beer/belgian-quad |title=Belgian Quad |publisher=newglarusbrewing.com |date= |accessdate=2013-10-02}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://averybrewing.com/our-ales/the-reverend/ |title=The Reverend |publisher= averybrewing.com |accessdate=2013-10-02}}</ref><ref>May. 25, 2007 ''[[Philadelphia Daily News]]'', [http://www.joesixpack.net/columnArchives/2007/052507.htm "Belgian taverns debuting all over"]: "...Obviously that dish demands a hoppy beer (ba-dum), but she opted for a Three Philosophers from New York's [[Brewery Ommegang]], a powerfully satisfying quadrupel flavored with cherry [[lambic]]."</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.slyfoxbeer.com/index.php/front/beer_ichor |title= Ichor |publisher=slyfoxbeer.com |date= |accessdate=2013-10-02}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://weyerbacher.com/blog/2012/12/quad/ |title=Weyerbacher Brewing Company QUAD |publisher=Weyerbacher.com |accessdate= 2013-10-02}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.boulevard.com/BoulevardBeers/bourbon-barrel-quad |title=Boulevard Brewing Company |publisher=Boulevard.com |date= |accessdate=2013-10-02}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://midnightsunbrewing.com/beer/8pb-venus-belgian-quadrupel/ |title=Midnight Sun 'Venus' |publisher=Midnightsunbrewing.com |date= |accessdate=2013-10-02}}</ref>▼
A '''Quadrupel''' (Flemish for 'quadruple') is a type of [[beer]], with an [[alcohol by volume]] of 9.1% to 14.2%.
A quadrupel is intended to be stronger than a [[Tripel]], so the [[Alcohol by volume|ABV]] strength will be 10% or more. Beyond that, there is little agreement on the status of Quadrupel as a style.<ref>{{cite web| |url=http://www.beerscribe.com/category/quadrupel/ |title= The Post Where I Say Nice Things About Harpoon…A Quad Review |date= March 15, 2009 |publisher= Beerscribe |date=2009-03-15 |accessdate=2013-10-02}}</ref> Beer writer [[Tim Webb]] notes that similar beers are also called '[[Grand Cru (food and drink)|Grand Cru]]' in [[Belgium]].<ref>Webb, T.
