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!

355 ml bottle. Pours a nice amber with a dense off-white head. Intense piney floral nose. Medium body with a bold malt and hop profile. Inital sweetness is quickly offset by an aggressive bitterness. Nice lingering battle between the sweet malt and bitter hop flavors.

Had it in a pint glass. The appearance is a light amber/orange. Poured w/a nice head. Not a lot, just perfect amount of head. The aroma is floral, bitter smell. Moderatly hoppy. Now for the taste. Bitter, floral, hints of citrus. Just like it smelled. Great bitter aftertaste. The bitterness lingers even after you drink it. Long after.

350 mL bottle. Clear dark yellow with foamy white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, and hops. Citrus, pine, hemp notes, and a malty finish with some lingering bitterness.

Pours a glowing golden light brown with a small white head. Smells of big hops and grapefruit. Quite a powerful aroma for just a regular IPA. Tastes of big bitter hops, grapefruit and other citrus seem to be on the back burner. Hops are pretty much up in your face. Defintely a nice drinking session IPA. Good showing here.

Pours a clear light ho-hum gold with noticeable carbonation, with a decent head and lacing. Strong aroma of grapefruity hops. The taste ensues with strong grapefruit bitterness upfront that eases a bit as it goes down. Good aftertaste that lingers.

Pours a bit light in color. Wonderfully complex citrusy, ripe fruit aroma. Initial tangerine taste quickly followed by resiny, tingly hop wash. Mouthfeel could be more intense. Aftertaste lasts just right then fades almost entirely.

This beer should be the definition of an IPA. Mild to heavy hops, with a great balance of bitter hops to fruity/citrus hops. The malts are hidden within the hop aroma and taste. This pours an orange haze of hops. Quite a delicious beer. A very well balanced ale.
