Avery The Reverend

It’s a dark amber beer with a modest head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, fruit and spice, and the same is found in the flavour, that has a light caramel sweetness and a limited bitterness. In the finish there is a nice note of coriander. A nice beer 1715.

22 oz bomber. Pours oragne amber with a very thin white head. The aroma is sweet nad has a bit of fruit in there as well. The taste is sweet and strong with a bit of fruit filling. It also is quite light for the abv and has a nice throat warming sensation in the aftertaste. It is not as good as real belgian Quads but it is tasty.

22 oz. bottle. Pours bright ruby red, with very little head. Aroma is yeasty and bright. Flavor is sugary and yeasty. I think I detect raisin? Very little bitterness. This is not a session beer, the alcohol is almost undetectable and it will sneak up on you.

Bottle 22oz. Poured a golden color with a 1 finger frothy white head. Aroma of sweet cotton candy almost. The taste of malt is there, and some citrus. Good beer!

22oz bottle: Medium/dark amber color, crystal clear, with medium sized off white creamy head. Seems rather light in color for this style. Aroma is creamy, sweet, fair amount of caramel, roses, hints of nutmeg and lemon zest, touch of cherries and figs. Flavor is malty, vinous, fairly sweet, bit of cherry and oak, touch of corn that seems out of place, subtle black pepper spiceyness towards the end, with a sweet but smooth finish. A good american interpretation, but doesn’t hold a candle to the real thing.

Once poured, a cosmos of clear bubbles settled atop the body of this beer, then dissipated into the clear tawny hue below. Thus the Belgian Candi Sugar Experience begins! The Reverend smells like a sweet bread, perhaps the communion of a biscuit and unripened wine. The body is warm and light in the mouth; glowing, glowing like fire water molasses. Me thinks of dark fruits as time passes and ale grows warm; currants, dates and cherries. Alcohol remains the dominant flavor, though, which makes for a dull Quadrupel comparison. Indeed, the Reverend is potent making for connection with the SUPREME plausible, but the beer remains a worldly interpretation; consubstantiation, not transubstantiation. Enjoyed from a Samichlaus Tulip, served chilled.

Bottle- pours out a nice peachy orange, red color. The head started out nice with a frothy belgian white look to it, the lacing is what did it for me though. This beer was not to strong in taste which for once surprised me but other characteristics did lack on for this brew. Hints of caramalized sugar, sweet grapes, and dry raisons.

This dark honey beer was a pleasing mixture of spicy berries and a molasas flavoring.
