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!

Botte: A really nice rounded ipa. Very balanced, a malt backbone that adds body but not much sweetness. Hop flavors and bitterness dominate all around. I get mosty spicy and floral notes from the hops. Not much citrus. Lingering bitterness. Really good.

Bottle. orange blonde color. Red berries, grapefruit and flowery hops in the aroma. Malty sweet flavor with raspberry cake dough, earthy hops, grapefruit and mandarin. Earthy and oily bitter aftertaste. Pretty nice, but too sweet for an IPA.

Bottle - clear orange coppery with a light white head that dissipates to skim the surface. Floral and citrus hop aromas. Flavor is similar to the aroma with big floral/citrus notes with a solid malt foundation and a light peppery finish but not especially bitter.

12 oz. bottle. Clear gold, with a large head that laced well. Nice hop bite up front with slight zing of lemon. Flavor carried to the back of the tongue with the hop presence diminishing. Solid IPA. I’m liking this Avery stuff.

Bottle: Translucent orange hued golden, huge rocky white head, clumpy lacing, lively carbonation.   Rich hop oriented nose.   Slight pepper.   Solid hop bitterness, slightly sweet, even softer citrus peel.   Malt background is just enough to balance out the hop aspect.   This one is quite good, bitter yet not totally mouth watering.   Fairly well rounded body, moderate mouthfeel.   Clean finish, not overbearing bitterness at all, while remaining quite flavorful.   Solid example of the style.   I’m glad its finally in Washington.   I would love to try this on tap.
