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.

On tap @ AVery. Caramel, brown sugar, some honey, and spicy white pepper smell. Wonderful nose. Taste is sweet caramael and peaches upfront, slight hop kick nd then finishes boozy and pretty sweet and mouth coating. Interesting brew.

Semi-hazed orange pour with a foamy white head that lingers for a while. Aroma is honey, peach, caramel, spice, and berry. Rich caramel texture and a good roast finish. Good hop bitterness but also tastes like a traditional belgian.

Flaske: Orange uklar, næsten ingen skum. Diskret duft af gær. Mangler karbonering. Fin krydret smag men ville være langt bedre med bare en anelse karbonering. Må være blevet opbevaret skidt, men stadig en god øl.

A light brown sugar, bread, and yeastiness on the nose of this light orange pour. A frothy white head and lace. A nice abv warmth, followed by, followed by an almost apricot, and an almost orange. A medium/full bodied beer with decent carbonation.

Bottled. Pours hazy golden with a large, off-white head. Excellent lacings. Nose of caramel, honey, hops and malt. Sweet flavour with malt, caramel, mild hops and peach. Medium bodied. Slightly bitter finish.

Tasted as part of the Avery Experience at Brouwer’s. Pours a light honey color with a mid-sized head. Boozy citrus hops on the nose, with some baking spices - almost like a Belgian wit on steroids. Light brown sugar, honey malts, apricot and peach. Slightly floral flavor, but full-bodied. Nice.
