Avery The Reverend

Pours a dark burgundy color with a foamy tan head. Spicy and fruity aroma with a nice touch of maltiness. Very quaffable for such a high ABV. Spicy and malty yet sweet with hints of candi sugar, cherries and dark fruit.

A brown bomber bottle poured into Chimay goblet. Pours a beautiful amber with a nice quick carbonation leaving a creamy white head that dissipates to a thin lace layering the beer. A light sweet smelling brew that hides it’s alcohol content from the nose: hints of fruit, banana and melon. This beer has a lot of flavor, all at once. It’s a bit overwhelming at first, but settles down as you drink it. The lack of alcohol in the smell is made up for on the palate. It finishes dry. Fruity tasting, though not banana and melon; more of a berry medley, which is mixed nicely with the sugars and malts common to quads. Lighter than I would have expected, so medium bod, but a great beer for the price. One bomber is more than enough for a sitting.

bottle. 22 oz. flavor has lots of strong fruit flavors mixed in with heavy alcohol. overall a decent beer

22oz bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Poured a glowing deep ruby color with a small off white head. Light lacing was left on the glass. Nose of sweet cherries and other dark fruits. Flavor was pretty sweet with some caramel malts and an alcoholic finish.

Pours clear orange amber with an off white head. Aromas of candy sugar, malts and yeast. Flavor starts sweet and finishes dry with hints of cherries. Smooth mouthfeel with soft cabonation. The 10% alcohol is definately noticeable. I’ve had many quads that were much better.

Bottle from Canals. Pours a thin orange amber with a very thin white head. Aroma is a mild yeasty, fruit and sweet note. The taste is pretty much the same except strong and not mild. The finish is cherry. It’s good. Definitely drinkable.

Fruity caramel nose. Brilliantly clear, deep amber/red thin head. Fruity attack of battered rum sweetness, nice bitterness bite on the back end. Full bodied, crisp tight bubbles, long smooth finish with a nice late alcohol burn. Perhaps more delicate Belgian Quadruples out there, but an excellent non-Belgian version. Another winner from Avery!

Thanks for this very special share, TikiE. Poures a dark haze of red. Light head with a decent lacing. Tastes of darksweet fruit and small amounts of hops. Alcohol is very well hidden. Pretty good, but have had better.
