A source available online is this paper "Examples of bad Noetherian rings" by Marinari (example 2.1).

The reason many of these types of construction work is because of the following vague and counter-intuitive phenomemon:

It is usually easier than we think for a complete local ring to be a completion of a Noetherian ring with certain properties.

For example, there is this amazing theorem by Heitmann that most complete local ring of depth at least $2$ is a completion of a UFD !

So back to Marinari's paper, the example is as follows: start with some local Artinian ring $(Q,m)$ such that $Q$ is not Gorenstein. Then $Q[[X]]$ is complete, and one can find a local domain $R$ such that $\hat R=Q[[X]]$. Now if $R$ is a quotient of a regular local ring, then the comletion of $R$ is generically a complete intersection. But $Q[[X]]$ is not even generically Gorenstein, since $Q$ is not.
