♣ Avery’s Reverend Quadrupel ale is a beer connaisseur’s dream come true, it will amaze your taste buds and expand your thinking on what a beer SHOULD taste like. This wonderful beer is from a small brewing company located in Boulder, Colorado that makes around 20 different styles of beer and every one I have tried has been great.

The Reverend, was created in tribute to the life of Sales Mgr. Tom Boogaard’s grandfather, an ordained Episcopal Reverend. Tom was inspired by the life of his grandfather and wanted to create a tribute beer that contained his sterling traits. True to both our “small brewery, BIG BEERS” philosophy and to the spirit and character of the departed Reverend, this beer is assertive, and pure of heart, a heart of candy sugar. It contains as many authentic imported Belgian specialty malts as the brewers could cram into our mash tun, and lots of Belgian dark candy sugar stirred into the brew kettle. A divinely complex and beautifully layered beer with hints of dark cherries, currants, and molasses, complimented by an underlying spiciness and a finish that is Sinfully smooth! Cellarable for 4 years.
