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!

12 oz. bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. The aroma is citrus, caramel, resiny, and floral. The flavor has a caramel malt base with nice floral and citrus hops. Medium bodied, decent drinking beer.

UPDATED: FEB 11, 2006 This beer poured an orange color with a moderate head. The flavor is orange peels, lemon, and sweetarts. This one lacks in the malt dept and leaves a lingering bitterness on your tounge. Not balanced but some great stuff heya!

I can smell the grapefruit in this one as soon as I open the bottle. A closer sniff ref\veals some sweetness, lightly toasted malt and earthy hops. Great cream yeah with an orangish body. Very refreshing citrus quickly taken over by a dry, butter, rindey citrus. The flavor is rounded out by lightly toasted malts and earthy hops

dchmela (2218) - Orlando, Florida, USA - AUG 1, 2007
Nice copper color with big fluffy white head. The aroma has some grapefruit, pine and malt but very subtle. Hoppy taste with some citrus and malt in there also. This is a very nice tasting IPA, not so overdone like some Avery beers.

HonkeyBra (2214) - Lemont, Illinois, USA - MAY 7, 2011
12 oz bottle. Dark orange pour with creamy white head. Aroma of caramel, orange peel, some tangerine. Hops trend towards the aforementioned citrus with notes of spruce and herbs. Flavor is quite dependent on caramel malt with spruce, pine, and herbal hops. Hops aren’t the focus of this beer. I get a bit of mint as well. Medium bodied. Basically a middle of the road IPA. Which is fine, nothing to detract from the beer. Just an average IPA.

redlight (2209) - Winter Park, Florida, USA - AUG 7, 2010
Draft @ redlight redlight. Hoppy piney aroma. Pours pale gold with a solid white head. Resinous hops upfront with bitter earthy flavors, very hop forward. Solid ipa!

Bottle. Great India Pale Ale. Orange/yellow color, with a white head. Citrus, grapefruit, and hoppy aroma and flavors abound. Crisp, dry finish.

curly (2193) - Seattle (Newcastle), Washington, USA - JAN 15, 2010
Pours clear orange with a decent white head that fades. Aroma of grapefruit and sweet citrus. Taste is bitter pine resin up front that fades to a sweeter grapefruit hop. The thick malt body supports the hops well. Medium-thin body.
