Commercial Description:
The success of HOG HEAVEN and THE REVEREND clearly demonstrates that beer drinkers are willing to embrace "BIGGER" beers. In the fall of 2001, we decided that a lighter BIG BEER would complement its darker colored predecessors. Salvation has luscious apricot and peach aromas delicately interwoven with spicy suggestions of nutmeg and cinnamon. This heavenly soft, champagne-like elixir is cellarable for 3 years.

Really nice american belgian ale. Easy drinking for a "big beer", lots of flavor with a fruity, malty and big spiciness. Some noticeable alcohol but big sweetness masks it well

Poured from a bomber with a very crystal clear med-yellow color. It had a vibrant white, tightly bubbled head and laced the glass nicely. Had typical belgian yeast aromas and a contrasting sharpness and softness from the strong malt background. Finished med-dry.

Clear golden with tiny short lasting head. Sweet aroma with fruit, yeast and caramel notes. Same goes for the for the sweet flavor.

22 fl oz bomber. Pours hazy orange with a lacing off-white head. Spiced aroma, slight herbal and carboard-like. My wife immidiately said: wet socks :(. Flavour is clearly with notes of Belgian yeast but also undefineable spiced. Sweet and slight woody with a lingering fruity and liqourice and slight peppery note into the finish. Ends with a fruity hoppy note. Strange and without balance. I would once again prefer a Belgian style from Belgium and an American style from America.

Draft. clear lemon, light urine color. thin surface head. Faint yeast hints. Very Victory golden Monkeyh like, though with less force and more watery. Ok.

Light blondish ale. Tiny bit of malt. Hey. It’s good to see them finally enter our market. Salvation is the nice Belgian style that overshadows a good chunk of the market.

Golden filtered color, white head. Average lacing. Flavor a little syrupy, slightly spicy, hoppy finish. This was a bit of a disappointment.. I have really enjoyed most of the other avery beers i have had. Bland flavor.

I can’t believe this only rates an 89. I found it to be excellent. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a big, fat white head. Nice fruity, yeasty aroma. Rich flavor full of sweet fruitness with a dash of spice. Nice and full on the palate. A wonderful Belgian strong ... actually one of the few (outside of Unibroue) non-Belgian breweries to nail the style, in my opinion.
