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.

Orange/light amber pour. Thin, light ringlets of lacing. White head is quickly diminishing, though not fully so. Aroma is of candy sugar, lightly toasted malts, flaked citrus rinds, yeast and slight tartness. Flavor is dusty and grainy, showcasing more lightly toasted malts and sugars throughout. Finishes semi-dry, with subtle lingering dark fruits and citrus oils. Palate is medium-light to medium-full, quite sticky. Draft and bottle samples, very tasty when fresh. Of this offering, the Russian River brew with the same name, and Collaboration Not Litigation, all tasted side-by-side, this one wins out as the most refreshing and my favorite of the three.

From bomber. Poured a yellow/orange with minimal white head. Nose was honey and a little fruity. Flavor followed with a bit of yeast presence. No alcohol detectable. Enjoyable.

From a 22 oz. gold foil wrapped capped bomber bottle, blurb along the right side of label, no bottled/freshness date, sampled from the refrigerator in a chalice. Poured a cloudy orange with a foamy white head that settled into a thin, bubbly lacing, small amount of laced sticking. Aromas of peppery spice, nutmeg and sugary alcohol, honey wheat malts, apricot and citrus fruity. Good carbonation and crisp, dry and smooth medium bodied mouthfeel. Pleasant tasting with the Avery kink, apricot, peach and orange fruity, a bit sugary, but light in the candiness, honey malts, peppery, earthy hops, a mild rolling bitterness, the alcohol is sweet and warming in the palate, and a dry earthy, peach fruity, sweet malty finish with the alcohol lingering in the palate, good strong pale ale drinkability. I can’t believe I hadn’t try this before, a good Belgian strong pale ale with the Avery twist, worth trying.

22 oz. bottle. Hazy gold with a restrained white head that settles quickly. Some yeast, light fruit, and spice in the aroma with a little toffee thrown in. Bright effervescence accompanies a medium body and astringent mouthfeel. Mild sweetness quickly fades, giving way to an light acidic sourness that ocntributes to a clean finish with the help of some gentle bitterness.

22oz bottle: Pours a golden brown color. Very clear, fizzy. Nearly no head, white. Strong dry aroma, grapes, dark fruit, complex, alcohol. Smooth taste, flowery, leafy, slightly fizzy, dark fruit, taste of alcohol. Grapes, spices. Warming up helps, aging might make it better.

Pours hazy orange gold with a thin head. Aroma is spice bread, and yeasty apricot. Bready caramel malt flavour, light grassy bitterness and a slightly stickey alcohol finish.
