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.

22 oz bottle, tulip glass. Toast grain/light bread malt (L); perfume and flower hops (M); doughy yesat (L); nutmeg aroma. Clear golden-peach body has a large, creamy white head that is slowly diminishing. Moderately sweet, lightly bitter, lightly acidic flavor becomes a moderately bitter, lightly sweet, lightly acidic finish. Medium-heavy body, creamy texture, lively carbonation. The bottom line is: fourth bottle of Avery in a row that has wowed me.

Bottle poured a nice copper amber with a smallish head. Aroma of sweet malts and alcohol. Flavor is overly sweet with a lot of alcohol at the finish...to sweet for my taste.

Poured a nice orange golden hue with a white head which had great retention and lacing. Aroma was bread-like and sweet with sugar like notes. Flavor was mild but still good. Sweet sugar notes, some fruit, and hints of alcohol. A delicate finish.

Great beer but a Belgian style triple? I don't think so. Beautiful orange color with white lacing; looks like a California IPA. Really strong with alcohol well hidden; make that an Imperial IPA like Dogfish Head 90 minute. But wait a minute; the citrus is getting overwritten with apricot and clove and well, maybe bread and yeast? Sort of mid way between a Belgian and an IPA. Would love to know what kind of hops they used.

Thanks Roy at Ruby’s for hooking me up with a bottle when the Pisgah Solstice tap was acting up. Had a little side-by-side tasting. Poured kind of flat at first but coaxed a nice head after refilling my glass. Lovely golden color. Quite clear. Lovely fruit (orange, orange peel and peach) aroma, along with strong spice on the nose. None of the doughy/floury/yeasty notes of some true Belgians, but the fruit and spice on this one are quite nice.

Golden/orange in color with a medium sized white head. Smells of apricots and spice. Tastes very sweet with a hint of apricot.
