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.

Bottle poured into a tulip produced a small head that turns to a nice lace on top of a hazy orange body Wonderful aromas of sweet Belgian yeast, fruit and malts Flavors of sweet citrus and spices (pepper) Medium to light body Drinkability: It’s not a bad American Belgian if you can find it at a reasonable price it’s worth the try and yes I’d drink it again

Pours a cloudy golden color with a thin white head. Aroma of honey, yeast and alcohol. The flavor has alcohol with honey and yeast. The body is light with a creamy texture and soft carbonation.

clear dark yellow, almost headless, sweet malt aroma with a hint of spices, rich malt flavor with a spicy finish, as it warms the spice blooms along with a hint of warm alcohol mixed in with a touch of orange citrus, light and refreshing for a 9% ale

From tap served in a heavy glass goblet Light orange with a nice light foamy head on top which lasted the entire glass coating the sides as it went down. Smelled of fruits and alcohol with a sweetness. When it firsts hits your tongue it has a sweetness but a wholesome kind of sweetness not sugary. Then you get fruit flavors with a little bit of alcohol and a very slight bitterness - a very nice balance Has a very nice carbonation throughout that lasted the entire time. It is crisp and creamy at the same time and goes down very smoothly. The flavors stay in your mouth for a while and you can feel the warmth spreading around throughout your mouth and down your throat. I really enjoyed this beer. It went down smoothly and the taste was consistent even getting richer as it warmed and opened up. You can definitely feel the high alcohol content so I savored the beer for a while.

bottle poured a cloudy amber in color with a big head that almost continued to grow from the carbination. smells of fruits, yeasts, spice, and some hops. taste is as the smell would let you think, good body with a full and somewhat creamy texture, good hops for the beer, spices, and some good fruits. good beer and masks the 9% rather well.
