    I picked up a couple of Avery "The Reverend" Quads. They all have the brewery name across the bottom of the label and the beer name across the top as in the BA picture.

    However, when I went to the Avery website to take a look, it showed a different label with "The Reverend" across the middle and the brewery name across the top.

    I want to know how old my beer is. Can anyone help?

    I believe they changed this in early 2011. I could be wrong about that date but it's definitely been at least a year. Reverend should be great with some age on it... I'd drink them pretty soon though, as it's also great fresh!

    For what it's worth, I haven't seen the newer label here in Charlotte, NC.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I think most of their leader series (not sure of exact labeling) have been changed in recent years. Maharaja, Czar, and Kaiser, so I am assuming the Reverend too. For an exact date, yeah can't help you there.

    Yep, they were all changed at the same time.
