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!

Pours out a mostly clear golden color with a small bubbly white head. Aroma is of citrus and slight pine hops and a little lingering sweet malt. Taste is citrus and pine hops with a balance of some sweet malts, slight floral hops in there also. Well balanced. Overall a very solid IPA.

12oz. bottle. Pours a nice dark gold, real good fluffy white head with good lacing. Hoppy, slightly smell of citrus, grapefruit maybe. Big hop bitterness all the way through the initial taste, really grabs onto the tongue. Tasty

Well I really do not like IPAs, and it holds true for this one. It pours an amber, with a strong hoppy bitterness. The bitterness is far too much for me.

Pours a light golden yellow, almost lager like. Smells of pine and I can't explain what else. The flavor is of decent hops, not as piney as the smell and is very light with a dry finish. The head was of beautiful litle bubblies, but the flavor is a let down. Very light. Almost wattered down.

12 oz bottle via Liquid Solutions. Pours a semi-hazy copper with a small head. Nose is floral and citrusy. Notes of caramel, orange, and grapefruit. Flavors are the same, mostly organge and grapefruit with a strong malt backbone. Cirsp semi-dry orange finish. Medium body. Well carbonated. Nice bittersweet balanced aftertaste.

Pours deep gold with a two finger white head, retention is good. Aroma is a sweet and moderately powerful blend of lemon juice, grapefruits and oranges, with subtle lime leaf and floral note. Flavor is more of the same, introducing a well wrought malt structure and toasted character to the fray. Palate is medium bodied, fading to light, very nice hop zing on the backside, but unobtrusive. Finishes clean, with a slight perfumy note. Very nice session beer, quite quaffable. I wish Adam could bring the non-alcoholic version he’s been pondering to fruition. If I had to describe the standard U.S. IPA characteristic taste and appeal to a recent craft beer afficianado, this would indeed be a great example. Unfiltered, this would be a masterpiece. A cask version would also be nice to try. Well done.

A quite plain looking IPA here, light orange coloured with a small splotchy white head. The aroma is much better rich scents of piney/grapefruit hops, quite invigorating. In taste this is for me a rather middle of the road IPA, it has a nice grapefruit bittersweet taste but also has a good ish malt backing. Almost balanced..unusual for an American IPA. It is pleasant on the tongue nothing too serious but nice. I found this a "OK" IPA, i did like it but i think this one bottle will be enough for me tonight.
