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 at the Liar’s Club. This orange ale poured with a thin off-white head. It is medium-bodied and slightly sweet, but leaves a bitter chalky taste on the tongue. Very nice.

Gold in the glass with a brief white variable head. Some lacing. Fantastic label. Aromas are strong pit fruit, especially peach, and some lemon. There is a malt presence here, too, slightly nutty, along with some soapiness of yeast. Astringent beer, with some clove/cinnamon spice and a light finish. Soft palate, yes, but at the cost of the hops. Still, a delicate, fine brew if you aren’t looking for a hop-heavy Belgian strong.

Aroma and taste are dominated by yeast and a bit of an alcohol burn. Beer is light amber hue with a slight head. More balanced than some of Avery’s high abv beers.

Bottled. Clear golden coloured with a medium sixed off white head. Sweet aroma of fruits and spices with notes of hops. Sweet flavour with lots of fruits and spices and a hoppy finish.

Copper body with an off-white head. Creamy and lingering. Lemony sweet aroma. Reminds me of Crystal Light. Much more subdued aroma than is typical for Avery’s big brews. Really great mouthfeel. Very soft and velvety. Pronounced yeast and citrus flavors.

Light blondish ale. Tiny bit of malt. Hey. It’s good to see them finally enter our market. Salvation is the nice Belgian style that overshadows a good chunk of the market.

I enjoyed this beer quite a bit. Pours a cloudy apple juice and has very little head. Aroma is very good...toasted lady fingers...spice, sweet malt and fruit...a bit of belgian yeast. Taste is actually fairly wheatish...must be the spice. Alcohol is totally balanced. Mouthfeel is very crisp and dry.

Been a while since I’ve had this one, and I recall it being imbalanced and trending towards cloying malt sweetness. Thankfully, this bottle is quite different and combines a very lively champagne fizz with the dry quality of a fine blond and the fruits of a tripel. Nicely hopped to boot and with a substantial body. A good one.
