COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
In the 1700’s one crafty brewer discovered that a healthy dose of hops and an increased alcohol content perserved his ales during the long voyage to India (as depicted in our label) to quench the thirst of British troops. Today, we tip our hat to that historic innovation by brewing Colorado’s hoppiest pale ale. Avery IPA demands to be poured into your favorite glass to truly appreciate the citrusy, floral bouquet and the rich, malty finish. Brewed by hopheads for hopheads!

garza (460) - Oslo (NO), Caracas (VE), VENEZUELA - AUG 14, 2011
Pours hazy orange with a frothy lightly tan head. Dough in the aroma together with far sweet hints of flowers, fruits and some pine and spices. Reefreshing round taste with medium bitterness. Light to medium body, oily feel, average to soft carbonation and a mid bitter after taste. Nice.

Tonkun (171) - New York, USA - JUL 26, 2011
Can. Golden orange pour with quickly disappearing head. Pine, citrus, flower, meaty. Sharp, refreshing and nicely carbonated that end with the typical bitterness. Good everyday IPA.

PaulHegedus (505) - Ontario, CANADA - JUL 26, 2011
Bottle at Beer Bistro. Served in a tulip glass. Golden amber colour with a one inch white frothy head. Pine and spruce in the hops, with some mildly aromatic hints of citrus. Medium bodied. Nice and bitter flavour: mostly pine with some grass and more subtle malt in the background. Bitter finish.

I love this beer. It hits you with hops but quickly it’s balanced with malt. It’s a staple in my fridge. If you ain’t a hophead, though, you won’t like it.

DrSilverworm (703) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JUL 23, 2011
12oz bottle. Clear yellow-orange color, with a cloud of fine sediment suspended throughout the entire glass. Thin head fading to minimal. Leaving some dissipating lacing. Beer is beautiful. Carbonation seems a bit sharp, but texture is good. Dry, but not too much. Super bitter, which I like. Resin hop, with malt. Grass, licorice. Very bitter hops (particularly throughout the aftertaste). Not your typical IPA - very aggressive.

Nena (957) - Seattle, Washington, USA - JUL 21, 2011
Golden, white head. Sweet, earthy, floral, dank aroma. Moderately sweet and grainy body, weightier than a lot of IPAs, citrus, more herby dankness, bitter finish.
