''Quadrupel'' is the brand name of a strong [[seasonal beer]] ''La Trappe Quadrupel'' brewed by [[De Koningshoeven Brewery]] in the [[Netherlands]], one of the eleven [[Trappist beer]]s.
 
In other countries, particularly the [[United States]], ''quadrupel'' or ''quad'' has become a [[generic trademark]]. The term 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 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130818185324/http://midnightsunbrewing.com/beer/8pb-venus-belgian-quadrupel/ |archivedate=2013-08-18 |df= }}</ref>▼
