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!

Medium golden color with a medium head that fades too quickly. Sour flowery hop aroma. The flavor is fairly well balanced but a little weak on both the malt and hops to be top IPA material. A good Bitter.

Nice copper color with a good head and a very intense floral hoppy nose out of the bottle. I spent the first few minutes with this beer just smelling it. A very dry beer with a great spicy, citrus flavor consistent with a good IPA. Nice bitter hop finish. I agree with very crisp and clean. Very drinkable.

Finn (2459) - Tromsø, NORWAY - MAR 18, 2010
Flaske 0,355l på Bar & Cigar, Oslo 16 Feb 10. Aprikosfarget. Litt uklar. Dempet fruktig aroma. Innslag av melon. Litt sitron. Lavt skum som etterlater mønster på glasset. Smak av sitrus - og igjen litt melon - som glir over i grapefrukt. Syrlig bitter ettersmak.

SamGamgee (2451) - down the whirlpool, California, USA - FEB 27, 2009
12oz bottle. Clear gold with lots of carbonation streams and a sticky head. Fruity hop aroma with grapefruit and tangerine, some pine, and a light, clean honey sweetness. Well balanced flavors with lightly sweet, toasty, honey malt balanced by fruity hops - Kiwi and citrus fruity. Finishes dry with a firm yet soft and pleasing bitterness. Nice citrus-laden IPA.

nuplastikk (2445) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - SEP 21, 2007
Attractive golden hue. Crisp and hoppy. Reasonable alcohol level makes it quite refreshing and easy drinking for an American India Pale Ale. Sweet malt glimmers through the hoppy taste. Lots of floral and fruity tastes to enjoy.

arminjewell (2442) - Parker, Colorado, USA - JUL 21, 2009
Poured orange/red with a nice white head, nose full of citrus and floral hop notes. Thick palate of full hop flavor with little malt backing, allowing a nice bitter finish. An excellent example of an IPA!

thegreenrooster (2435) - St.louis, Missouri, USA - NOV 23, 2007
Pour is a orange with a small white head. Aroma is a nice dry hop with not much else coming though but that is a good thing. Flavor is super hoppy and bitter with some malts coming through. A very nice example of the style.
