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!

Pours straw yellow-orange hazy color. Thick head. Nose has hay, straw, dusty straw at that. On palate is a surprising malt focus with the hops, almost honeyed malt with the hop assertiveness to balance. This ale strikes me as an american pale ale that is a little overhopped, not necessarily an American IPA. Very appetizing finish though - keeps you yearing for the next sip. Nice.

LadySusan (601) - Ste-Therese, Quebec, CANADA - NOV 26, 2009
Taster at The Mondial de la biere 09 in Montreal. The color is honey with a thin beige head. The aroma is of fruits and hops. The taste also is very hoppy with citrus fruits a bit of malt and the bitterness. This one left a very pleasant taste in the mouth.

Sigmund (3495) - Hafrsfjord, NORWAY - NOV 26, 2009
12 fl. oz. bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Golden colour, big white head. Nice aroma of fruity and floral hops. The flavour is disctinctly hoppy throughout - plenty of American grapefruity and resinous hops, some malty sweetness in the middle, bitter finish and aftertaste. Quite good.

Frovigalning (1312) - Örebro, SWEDEN - NOV 25, 2009
This beer had a distinct taste and smell of fruity hops. High bitterness and medium body. Top that with a smooth mouthfeel and you got yourself a very tastey brew.
