Commercial Description:
Named for the 54 Colorado peaks which tower over 14,000 feet in elevation, our session beer is a spectacular copper hued beauty. The treatment of our water to simulate English hard water and the blending of several specialty malts and hops produce a delicate balance between aromatic maltiness and herbal hops.
OG: 1.048
IBU's: 37

Pour was medium golden with tinted white head. Aroma was of medium hop bitterness with a hint of butter. Real smooth and creamy body tasted of mild bitterness with light butter/toffee finish. Good and refreshing. Easy drinking beer. May buy again.

Bottle pours clear amber with a decent and clingy white head. The aroma is orange and bread. The flavor is has a decent amount of orange marmalade and bread malt notes, with some hops to balance it out. The palate is a bit too lively for my tastes with an ESB, but decent bodied none the less. Overall, glad I tried it.

I enjoyed this esb alot. Exactly what i thought it would be from Avery. The flavors were very strong and it did have a nice traditional bitterness to it. Good for the style and another good beer by this brewery.

This is a fairly tasty ESB. It is copper with a fairly large off-white head that slowly shrinks to a lasting head and has decent lace. The smell is juicy and leafy, with a little caramel, toasted bread, grapefruit, and a hint of pine. It’s very nice and is a little English. The taste is fairly dry but flavourful with bread, juice, some caramel, with a bitterness of leaves and grapefruit taking over along with more juice and bread. It has pretty good balance and a definite light English quality.

Pours amber with a white head. Slight malty aroma and touch of hops. Flavor has a bit of malt with a slight touch of the hops.

Bottled. Poured amber with a white head. Aroma is a very mild sourness with bread malt. Starts out as a slight fruit flavor and then switches to the mild sourness noticable in the aroma, and finishes wet with some pear. Mouthfeel is medium.
