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!

This is my first Avery. I purchased it at The Caboose in Ashland , Va. This is an excellent brew. Tthe aroma was of hops and the flavor of hops. It is an excellent balance of malt and hops. The IPAs are super. This IPA is very drinkable. The head was frothy but hung around. This is was one of my first IPA in awhile. It is special. It has a bitter taste that will keep you coming back. My second on 6/24/05 was just as good. I did not want the glass to empty. Another was enjoyed Christmas 2005. This is one of my favorite IPAs. Another on 5/11/06 when I brought my son back from VA tech. Lots fo citrus.

Poured a clear light orange with a big fluffy off white head. Hoppy, citrusy aroma. Hoppy, piney, citrusy flavor and a bitter finish. Light sweet malts also. Very nice.

golden color with white head, nice citrus and floral aroma. Well balanced between malt and the citrus and floral hops. nice bitter hop finish, not the hop monster like some IPA's, but a very pleasurable drinking experience nonetheless.

Orange amber in color, it pours slightly hazy with a very nice head that displays excellent retention. No noticable carbonation trails in the beer give it a very rich appearance. As the head fades, it leaves a layer of foam typically found in malty brews. The aroma is very hoppy, with distinct citrus characteristics mixed with a hint of rose florals and a touch of sweetness that almost conjures up the image of bright pink bubble gum. On the tongue, the malt character of this beer is strong, with noticable sweetness evident through the balanced hoppiness. The finish is noticably bitter and very enjoyable.

Slightly hazy gold. White, frothy head. Fresh, flowery grapefruit & pine aroma. Sticky feel. Lovely, restrained, hop flavour of grapefruit & pine, nicely balanced w/ just enough malt.

On tap at Papago. Very good IPA. Citrusy and floral hop aroma. Clear golden color, white head. Nice hop flavor, plenty of bitterness. Good malt backbone. Medium body. Overall, very well-balanced IPA.

Bottled. An orange-amber beer with a slight haze under a thick bubble beige head. The aroma is very grassy and grapefruity - very fresh. The flavor is sweet and very hoppy at first with strong notes of grass, then a hay character comes along, to be overwhelmed grapefruit notes, which carries thru to a dry hay like and very bitter end. Somewhere in the middle a slight note of caramel creeps in - but this is mainly a hoppy beer nice.

Slightly hazy gold. Thick heavy foam. Strong grapefruit aroma. Strong hop flavour with lasting finish and a gentle sweetness. Well made.
