Commercial Description:
We believe in Karma. We suspect most of you do, too. It truly is a global concept. Very simply put, "you get what you give." Inspired by this principle and the wonderful farmhouse and pale ales of Belgium, we've created Karma Ale, a decidedly fruity and estery ale, intricate in body and nose, all driven by a unique Belgian yeast strain. Remember, good things DO happen to good people. Here's to being good!

12 0z. bottle, large white head with nice golden color, fruity nose of apricot or plum, somewhat watery or thin with a not very strong flavor, i would agree that their other beers are better, this and the white rascal did not work for me

bottle - Pours slightly hazy light amber with a one finger head. It has a mild aroma of malt, citrus, and esters. The flavor is sweet malt with a touch of yeast and some mild hops that shows up mostly in the finish. It’s alright, but Avery makes many better beers.

Pours small hea which quickly dissipates. No aroma per se. Says its a Belgian? Honestly, it reminds me more of an English ale than a Belgian. Light body. Perhaps there’s a little risidual sourness in the yeast strain which could possibly make it akin to a Belgian? Still, a bit dissipointed of all the beers I’ve had from Avery.

A relatively light and nutty ale with a distinctive dark brown appearance. Aromas of tasted malt and molasses prevail. Actual flavor tends more towards the sweet, somewhat fruity side with a yeasty and earthy tones, but without the usual complexity Avery offers. Pair with a nice grilled pork chop and pear compote.

12oz bottle. Pours a cloudy orange/amber with a billowy white head. Aroma is sweet and spicy, with strong notes of hops, honey, and spices. Taste is light and creamy, with only the slightest sweet hoppy flavor to speak of -- perhaps a twinge of malt or grain. The most inoffensively neutral beer I’ve ever had.

12 oz bottle: Pours a clear golden with a hint of amber and a nice big sized white foamy head that lingers for a while. Aroma is fruity, light citrus, and somewhat grainy and bready. Taste is somewhat underwhelming with a grain note and flat with some fruit and lightly spiced with some caramel malt notes as well. palate has a lingering fruity sweetness. Overall, It’s a decent brew but the taste is rather blah in my opinion. Cheers!

12oz bottle. Pours murky dark copper with a thin white head. Caramel, butterscotch, mint, cilantro and wet grass on the nose. Not overly pleasant. Fairly bland flavor. Some lighter toasty malt, watery grain. Slightly zingy finish with some wet cardboard for added effect. Kind of watery. Messy and unimpressive.

Bottle. Pours amber with a white head. Sweet and fruity hop aroma with a hint of caramel and honey. Medium body. Sweet malt flavor with nutmeg and caramel. Pretty good.
