Brewer Dann Paquette made some of the best beer in town -- at North East Brewing and the Tap in Haverhill, among others -- before moving to the UK.

Now he's back, and he's started brewing up some lovely beers. He's already released two beers with his Pretty Things Beer and Ale Project: Jack D'Or is an American saison and St. Botolph's Town is a malty rustic dark ale.

Now Paquette is debuting a new beer, Baby Tree, which is a quadrupel brewed with dried plums.

Paquette will be at a tasting of his three beers from 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday at Federal Wine & Spirits, so you can see for yourself that he's being completely truthful when he calls these creations pretty things.

Federal Wine & Spirits, 29 State St., 617-367-8605.

The Recipe Box Project:

If you want to contribute a recipe to The Recipe Box Project, please write it below. Also tell us where you got it (package box, cookbook, mom, friend -- include the name). We're looking for the kinds of dishes that people grew up on, that were served at family suppers, that tell a story, that are typically New England, or that you brought with you from a far away place to New England. We will print one of the recipes in the Food section once a month. To ask any questions, write to Debra Samuels, who is overseeing this project, at recipebox@globe.com.
