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!

Very good. Fresh can. I don’t know what it looks like cause I drank it out of a can in a tube on a river...Great clean light bodied beer, tons of bitter from the nose through the palate and a clean crisp finish. Really nice balanced hop character as well

Citrus, pine, and hops dominated the smell. Pours amber with a frothy white head. Flavor is more floral hoppy and spicy. It has a nice bitter finish but some sips it lingers too long.

Top Tier IPA, nice hops, nice malt and sweetness to it to balance it pretty perfectly, had it out of a can which I think enhanced the experience

(bottle) A tue IPA in the classic style; hoppy, bitter citrus, amber and above average alcohol without being a cocktail. Nicely done.

Ok beer. This Aromatic IPA has a mild bitterness that ends even litter than it stars. One of the easier IPA to drink on all day at only 6.5%

Bottle at Øl og matfestivalen. Dark orange color, thick white head. Hoppy aroma with citrus notes and pine, taste of malt sugars and hops, mainly floral. Nice bitterness, but overall I feel this beer has some way to go to be lined up with other american ipas

kumite56 (465) - Cordova, Tennessee, USA - JUL 10, 2011
This beer poors a nice clear amber color with a slight off white and rapidly diminishing head. Aroma is modes at best with hoppy notes of spruce. Light backbone but overall it seems to be well balanced. Palate is lighter than expected as well Taset is medium in its bitterness and with a ligt sweet malty base. Not bad but give me a DFH 90 any day.
