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 a light orange color with a surprising two to three finger off-white head. I love the smell of an IPA, and this one lives up to the style -- it’s spicy, orange, and refreshing. There’s also some herb in the nose, mellowing out the citrusy zest. The flavor is full of hops, but there’s a nice sweetness in the background making it less bitter and more yum. Hops are lemon and orange, and perk my mouth right up. The beer finishes slightly sweet and barely metallic, and leaves a dry aftertaste. This is a really nicely done IPA, in my opinion. It packs a decent punch, but it’s balanced enough to drink easily.

Appearance: Pours an oh-so clear golden hue with a splash of orange that looks reminiscient of apple juice. The last couple of weeks have been nothing but stouts and porters for me, so it’s refreshing to see some sharp, crystal clear colors for a change. White foamy head, but it’s dieing fast! Some great lacing throughout this beer’s final moments. Smell: A fruit medley (pineapple, mostly) mixed with piney hop aromas. I’m not picking up much (or any) malt in the nose. Taste: A light, delicate flash of malt followed by a rushing tide of hop bitterness with a long, spicy finish. Mouthfeel: Very crisp and quiet thirst-quenching. Medium-light mouthfeel with a fair amount of carbonation. Not bad! It’s got good... Drinkability: While India Pale Ale is not my favored style, I’m really enjoying this, as its got just the right amount of hops for me. Definitely as sessionable as an IPA can be. Thanks again, Avery!

Bottle. Lots of pine resin and a small amount of citrus in the initial aroma. There was just a slight hint of toasted malt and dough. Both acidic and bitter initial flavor with a long bitter finish. Carbonation is soft and the texture is quite dry. This is about the driest IPA I’ve tasted yet. A good drinking beer.

Bottle. Pleasant floral hop aroma. Flavor is well balanced between malt and hops, but the hop flavor is well pronounced (and tasty).
