DJMonarch (4280), Northwich, Cheshire, England Jul 3, 2009 On Tap at Jax Fish House, Denver 10/10/2007
Small white head. Some carbonation. Hoppy aroma. Clear golden coloured hoppy and citrus flavoured with a crisp and bitter lasting finish. chumba526 (5), Washington, USA does not count Jul 3, 2009 Avery I.P.A poured a golden crisp color; it had moderate foam: head was about an inch. It smelt moderately of grassy pine tasting hops. The carbonation is not over the top or overly flat; it has perfect carbonation for an American style IPA. The taste remained loyal to the smell; it was crisp and refreshing. This I.P.A had very mild malty bite, which allowed the flavors of the hops to be showcased. There was a slight citrus sourness followed by a moderate bite of hops. This belongs like Stone IPA in the ranks of America’s best I.P.A’s. I cannot find anything really to complain about, concerning the beer. This is an American IPA which does not try to be a double or imperial IPA; it is simply a simple nearly flawless IPA SHANER4 (340), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Jul 3, 2009 bottle 12 oz. - golden pour with small white head.
Aroma - citrus, mango and grapefruit. Just plain hop goodness!!!
Flavor - pungent hops with good balance of malt. Very nice smooth citrus taste.
Palate - medium somewhat creamy mouthfeel. Above average carbonation with mild bitter finish.
Overall - Excellent IPA, First taste is top notch with average finish, a little soapy! MereLikesBeer (69), Royal Oak, Michigan, USA Jun 30, 2009 My friend BeerBaron617 picked up a sixer of this at the store down the street to share. He took a sip and thought it was a bit bitter, seems to think it has been sitting on the shelf for a while. It looks nice, a darkish yellow with a foamy white head that leaves a lot of lacing in the glass. Aroma is not very a bit strong for me, not enough citrus in there. Taste is very bitter. I don’t think I am having the best of luck with Avery products :( ThaddeusBraun (8), North Carolina, USA does not count Jun 29, 2009 This is my favorite IPA, i am a manager of a Restaurant & Wine/Beer Shop in NC and this is the best selling beer that i carry. Not only because it is a personal favorite but because of the overall quality. great balance of malts and citrus hops. mitchgt (2), Tallahassee, Florida, USA does not count Jun 28, 2009 Bottle. Nice. Pours a cloudy pale orange. Perfect 3/4" lacy head. All citrus and hops. Pleasing bitter aftertaste. Followed it with a Dogfish 60 min, which surpisingly presented an unsavory sweetness. A straight-ahead IPA (not overly complex). cyrenaica (400), Milton, Ontario, Canada Jun 25, 2009 12oz bottle
6.5% ABV
I loved the map on the label. I tried this beer on June 18, 2009 at ’The Beer Bistro’ in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a hazy orange-gold with a rocky white head. The aroma was malt, hops, and pine. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was crisp, some malt, and a bitter grapefruit. Enjoyable. jcdsmack (84), Henderson, Nevada, USA Jun 24, 2009 This is a good representation of a classic IPA. Pours copper with a nice head solid aroma of traditional English hops. Nice sweet malt balance finishes with a good hop bite. Flavors of pine and earth, carrot and bark. Well balanced this beer good.
