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!

Orange and floral aromas. Beautiful golden color. Orange, floral, and hoppy flavors burst out, backed by a light maltiness. Bitter hop finish. Match with a boldly flavored food.

12 oz. can: Pours a dark yellow with a nice white head and little carbonation. Taste is a nice hop profile with a moderately bitter character. Body is thin overall with a fizzy start and abitter finish. Good IPA.

UPDATED: AUG 27, 2011 Tasted on tap at the brewery in Boulder. Golden yellow orange appearance with a pretty creamy head. Delicious hoppy aroma. Light malts with an unbelievably delicious hoppy flavor. You really get to taste the whole spectrum of hops in this flavor. One of my favorite IPAs.

hunter112 (26) - Nanuet, New York, USA - NOV 18, 2010
Cleanly made, but at the scores I’m seeing, I frankly expected more from this brew. The hops are almost subdued, and that’s not what I want from an IPA.

JStax (689) - Devola, Ohio, USA - NOV 15, 2010
Appearance is a translucent orange with a fluffy white head that lingers for awhile. Aroma is hops and pine. Taste is a subdued hoppiness hoppiness with some nice malt for an IPA. Heavy beer and damn tasty. Probably a favorite in the style.

Petkus331 (76) - Redford, Michigan, USA - NOV 15, 2010
An strong aroma of hops, citrus, and resin. The taste is of hops, citrus, resin, and a hint of raisin with medium-high bitterness (guessing 80-90 IBUs). A very good brew, almost an Imperial IPA. Amber color, thin head. Medium body, soft carbonation. Great IPA, comparable to a Sierra Nevada Torpedo. The nose really stood out in this brew, love it.

dnstone (1458) - Mons, BELGIUM - NOV 14, 2010
Aroma is heavy on the barley with dry-hop undertones. Golden in color with nice head. Taste is again barely-heavy with a bitter hop finish. A good beer, I just dont care for it much.

mjmcend (209) - USA - NOV 13, 2010
Very floral and refreshing in the nose. Some malty sweetness as well. Orangish and chalky with a very thin head. Taste is traditional IPA loaded with hops but good balance. Finish is clean and strong. Quite good.
