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!

Rune (4667) - Tromsø, NORWAY - DEC 3, 2011
355ml bottle from Vinmonopolet Vika in Oslo. Almost clear, rocky, golden body, in the direction of orange. Bubbly, white foam, spotty lacing. Inviting aroma of hoppy fruits with a floral touch. Taste of oranges, lemon and mild pumpkin along with sheer spiciness. Rounded and rather short finish of dry bitterness. Medium minus bodied. Session qualities (Tromsø, 30.11.2011).

bb (4577) - Alamo, California, USA - AUG 18, 2004
Bottle. Amber color with a big white head. Big grapefruit aroma that also seems very refreshing. Nice bitterness, but a slightly light body. Light malt body, good bittering flavor of grapefruit, some tar, and some spice. Easy to drink.

Beershine (4561) - The Sunshine State, Florida, USA - JAN 19, 2008
Smells like a million other American IPAs. Tastes like a million other American IPAs with a Northwest hopface. Perfectly fine as a beer, and above-average for sure. Nice woodsy finish that might help me identify it in a lineup.

michael-pollack (4527) - King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 22, 2006
12oz. Bottle: Huge hop aroma. Hints of apricot, citrus, and resin. No malt scent. Light brown/copper color. Clear, but looks a little thin too. Sparkling. Huge, dense, off-white head. Great lacing. Tastes of citrus and hops. Also quite piney. Very tasty and quite bitter. Light body. A little thin. Malty-sweet, slightly dry finish that lasted. Overall, a really good IPA.

Dogbrick (4522) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - AUG 8, 2005
This brew is a lightly cloudy pale orange color with a thin off-white head. Sticky patches of lacing. Good amount of grapefruit and hops in the nose. Medium-bodied with a tart mandarin orange and hops flavor, along with a decent malt backbone. The finish is hoppy and lingering. Pretty impressive when it’s all said and done.
