Spencer Monks' Reserve Ale is a Quadrupel from Spencer Brewery, America's first Trappist brewery. Brother Jonah crafted this recipe before the monastery opened in 2014, drawing on the tradition of strong, dark Belgian ales brewed in monastic settings. This robust ale arrives in mahogany hue, topped with a dense tan head. The aroma showcases fruity and spicy Belgian yeast character. The palate balances malty sweetness with caramel and spice notes, building into a full, creamy body. The finish is smooth, with a lingering peppery warmth that adds depth without harshness. At 10.2% ABV, this Quadrupel delivers substance and complexity suited to slow contemplation.
