Avery’s LNC is a Belgian IPA moshpit of flavors, with banana, peach, cloves, and hops all battling, and I’m the winner. It’s a beautiful mixture of flavors, an enjoyable layered voyage. shortamdstout (3), Alabama, USA does not count | 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jul 18, 2009 loved this brew a great combo of two great beers, nothing bad i can find with this.

| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 12, 2007 Draft at Falling Rock Taphouse, Denver. Midnight red with a very sticky, thick haed. Delivers a robust sugar/caramel sweetness but done in an exceptionally drinkable manner. This is an outstanding beer in the Belgian tradition. (#3132, 10/10/2007) Cybercat (784), Georgia, USA
| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jul 30, 2008 Pours a semi-transparent, dark, golden amber with a very thick, fine-bubbled, cream-white head that sticks around a while. Aroma is rich and malty with fruity and yeasty hints. Mouth-filling flavor is very toothsome, mostly malty with some hints of hops and undertones of bananas. Texture is pleasantly smooth, but this beer still goes down with just a little sass. BillKismet (1903), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Apr 5, 2008 Updated: Apr 7, 2008This was called a porter at the bar and the brewers themselves call this a belgian strong ale, but it looks, smells, and tastes like an Old Ale to me. Red amber, melanoidin malt color with decent head. Deep cherry port and wood aromas tantalize. Flavor is full of rounded port, and cherry and wood. Seems mellowed and well aged. Wonderful complexity. Truly top-notch. GreatLibations (1441), Last Supper, Arizona, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Feb 11, 2007 Pours a dull copper penny from the 1968 release w/ a full, semi creamy froth that recedes slowly to reveal a full silky canopy. The brewers lace just clings to the walls cascading down to a contiguous foamy ring. Very nice! Aromas of Belgian dark fruits, granite, and some aged banana spice. Medium full nectar w/ ample residual effers create a lucious, creamy texture. A malty backbone balanced w/ a peachpit bittering componant. Nice banana spice and fresh clove , dried dark fruits, slightly medicinal, a touch of sodium and leather. Tree bark and bakers cocoa show up as she warms along w/ some malted chestnuts and chewy caramel. It’s very different. The Belgian character is obvious but theres this old world English style disposition that kicks in toward the finsh. Then it seems to run for the door and turn IIPA on me. Very complex indeed. It’s like the hops are there but are suspended in a cryogenic caspule just waiting to come alive but they have freezer burn and can’t quite make it out the door. The finish is bittered well w/ peach pit. Overall: this brew is a unique specimen and worthy of a connoisseurs purchase. It’s very Belgian w/ a defined personality disorder. I love it and will stash a few bottles away for next year. nearbeer (1834), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Feb 21, 2008 650 ml, bottled Jan 2007. Dark amber with a large and lasting head. Nice lace. Complex aroma has spicy light and dark fruit, molasses, oak, and herbs. Great flavor blend of earthy oak, dates, cocoa, peppery caramel apple, slight bubblegum and a hint of alcohol. Medium body is silky smooth, slightly tingly on the tongue, and just dry enough on the finish. Unique Belgian, and a much better solution than no Salvation, and endless meetings with $400/hr lawyers. bbp182 (255), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA
