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!

Svesse (4215) - Hässelby, SWEDEN - JUL 31, 2008
(Bottle, Akkurat, Stockholm, 30 July 2008) Pale amber colour with huge, white head leaving lots of lacing. Malty, fruity nose with notes of grassy, citrussy hops and a distant hint of smoke. Fruity, malty taste with bready malt and a grassy, dry finish with distinct notes of citrussy hops. Notes of sweetness. Very nice balance. Very nice beer.

thedm (4116) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - OCT 16, 2003
This brew poured a medium head of fine to medium sized white bubbles that lasted a long time and left behind a good lacing and a softly carbonated transparent yellow colored body. The aroma was all hops and the mouthfeel was bubbly and tingly from start to finish with a slight bitterness in the finish. Typical IPA. The flavor is nice for an IPA and all hops.

Grovlam (4106) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - FEB 24, 2007
Bottle [Tasting @ Per 23-02-2007]. Head was small fizzy white and quickly goon. Fair lacing. Body was clear sparkling with a pale amber hue. Aroma was lovely pine, elder flower, grapefruit and other citrus notes. Some caramel and grain could be detected in mouth. Medium to full bodied with an average carbonation and a dry texture. Nice hope bitter flavor with a blend of sweet malt. Not as bitter as expected. As described the malty sweet finish is evident. Solid IPA.

badgerben (4091) - Blaine, Minnesota, USA - NOV 25, 2006
Clear, dark gold color with a thin head. Very odd hop aroma. It’s a mix of US hops (tons of citrus) and English hops (dry earth). But the taste leaves nothing to the imagination about where this was brewed. Lots of citrusy hops. Very dry finish, but doesn’t get grainy and disgustingly bitter. Just a nice bitter, if that made sense.

AmEricanbrew (4077) - roam, Louisiana, USA - JAN 10, 2008
12 oz. bottle pours a clear amber hue with a nice off white head. Has a strong grapefruit aroma. Nice medium body. The taste is a strong grapefruit bitter flavor with a malt sweetness that sneaks in the back door. Finishes with a bittersweet after taste. Very nice.2003
