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!

Bottled: Pours a orangish yellow color with a fine white head. Smells of fruit and spices, and tastes of light malts with hints of spices and hops.

Pours out a clear golden/slightly orange color. Sweet fruit and some grassy hop on the nose. Taste is refreshing and very drinkable, notes of some fruity yeast, some hop going on in there as well. Well balanced, drinkable and a good summer alternative for those of us who don’t care for Wit beers.

Doesn’t really taste much like a Belgian Ale, more like an American Pale, but I think that helps its cause. Pours dark orange small head. Smells of sweet malts and lots of hops. Flavor is that of a sweeter pale ale. Very enjoyable ale.

A nice ale tasted at the avery brewing company at the 15th Aniversery on draft. Soicy and slightly bitter.

bottle. Aroma of citrus and cobwebs. Hazy orange amber hue with a small mostly diminishing white head that left little lace. Flavor is spice, Belgian yeast, citrus, and a slightly bitter finish. Palate is light to medium bodied and lively. A decent Belgian but only because it is weak. More of the same crappy Belgian yeast funk.

Great tasting beer. Does not remind me of a Belgian. Reminds me of an APA. It is a good idea to drink this beer. It is satisfying.
