Commercial Description:
In the 1700's one crafty brewer discovered that a healthy dose of hops and an increased alcohol content perserved his ales during the long voyage to India (as depicted in our label) to quench the thirst of British troops. Today, we tip our hat to that historic innovation by brewing Colorado's hoppiest pale ale. Avery IPA demands to be poured into your favorite glass to truly appreciate the citrusy, floral bouquet and the rich, malty finish. Brewed by hopheads for hopheads!

Draught. HUGE hoppy aroma, spruce and pine. That carried into the flavour, but a little lighter. The hop tastes were more citrus hops and easy to drink. Pretty nice lacing. Well balanced IPA.

Not bad. Solid and exactly to the demands of the IPA style. As I drink more beer, I believe less and less in hop bombs and more in balance. This is not a hop bomb, but it is quite good.

Here is a solid American IPA. Pours a very clear pale color with a white head that sticks around for the finally. Lots of citrus notes. Grapefruit it seems. Very floral in the nose. Just the right bitterness that lingers well. Lots of hop pungency. This is definately one of the better IPAs Iv’e had. For an American IPA this one I will grab for again and again. Thank you Avery! The Lord bless the hop harvest.

On Tap at the Frisco Grille in Columbia, Maryland. Nice cloudy orange color with a short lived small head. Aroma is pure grapefruit/citrus hops and that’s what is in the flavor profile as well, but there’s a nice malt backbone to keep everything together. very nice IPA.

It doesn’t take a whole lot to make up a good IPA. Just gotta be well-balanced, tasty, and with some nice bite to it. Example: Avery IPA

My first brew from Avery, and quite a tasty one at that! It has the trademark qualitys of a fine IPA, Hoppy, citrusy, but a little smokeyness on the finish which made it superb. Had this in the bottle(poured into a glass of course) at the Box bar in Plymouth, MI

Barnyard pine and citrus highlight the aroma. Subtles hops on the palate and a musty slight thinning funkiness. Quiet medicinal/chemical fruitiness. not bad
