Avery Salvation

Brewed by Avery Brewing Company
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Boulder, Colorado USA

Pours hazy medium orange with a small frothy white head. Aroma is complex, malty; cookies, hoppy: pine and oranges, Yeasty: bubblegum. Flavor is close to perfectly balanced with an average duration finish. Light to medium bodied, a bit oily and lively carbonated. Excelent!

Beer pours deep orange/amber with thick white head. The aroma is very sweet, with some honey, some raisins, some yeast, and some alcohol. The flavor is very malty with some raisin flavors, toasted bread, and hops showing up in the middle. The beer finishes bittersweet from hops and full-bodied. The mouthfeel is thick and creamy, but not syrupy. The alcohol is well disguised.

Bottle. It was a Christmas gift thanks! Poured a golden color with a 1 finger white head. Has an aroma of bananas, cherry’s, also a hint of nutmeg. The taste is great can taste cherrys, nutmeg. This is a very good beer but I think it would be better aged.

22 oz Bomber - Pours a nice golden / amber color with a medium, but quickly fading head. Wonderful fruity and floral aroma. Strong alcohol presence, but not overwelming. Overall, a quality Belgian Strong.

Nice belgian strong. Pours golden with a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is sweet and fruity, with a bit of alcohol in it also. Flavor is spiced fruit (this could work as a christmastime beer). It is a full bodied beer, that lives up to the commercial description of being champagne-like. I wish I had tried this one and the Russian River Salvation before trying their Collaboration ale. It would be interesting to taste the way it worked in that blend. Might need to try a 3 way tasting of the two Salvations, and then the Collaboration.

Beautiful golden/amber liquid. Nice creamy finger and a half of head with great retention. Decent lacing. Big yeasty bread smell. Candy sugars and maltiness. Peaches and pears, maybe a hint of nectarines. Spicey notes of coriander and nutmeg. Yeast, malt and candy sugars. Citrus flavors, light and sweet. Pecan nuttiness. Slight peppery spice. Light floral hop quality. Very nice body. Creamy and smooth, yet not overly heavy. Excellently drinkable.

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

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.
