2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
bottle pours a light amber with minimal carbination and a thin layer of head on the glass. smell is sweet malts, peachy apricot, vanilla, and spice. taste is spicy malt, alcohol, and some hops. middle of the road beer, nothing unique in this one. i guess it is pretty close to a farmhouse, pale ale as the label advertises though. my least favorite so far from Avery.

Bottle. Pours copper with thick, foamy off-white head and small particles suspended in it. Aroma: apricot, orange, musky yeast. Flavor is faint caramelly malt and some apricot and lemon peel hop flavors. Slight unclean vinegary sauer kraut flavor. Some light grapefruit bitterness in the finish. Mouthfeel a little watery.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
POurs light brown with a nice firm head. It shows fruit/citrus notes from the hops and then gives you a bit of a sweet and spicey palate witha longer lasting finish.

12oz bottle, still trying to like these belgians, this one is not bad, more sweet with a bland finish which makes this easy for me to drink. not bad, still trying on the belgians.

Pours a lightly hazy, amber color with fairly small, off-white, fizzy-frothy head; longevity is decent and lacing is... Nose is grainy with sweet malts and light phenols. Flavor is better with similar notes and a nice toffee note and faint esters. Palate is fairly light, lively, and mostly dry. Finishes abruptly and dry with some phenols and light esters. Fairly boring for a Belgain but it is quite drinkable. Lacks the character of most of Avery’s beers.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of sweet malts, dark fruits, and yeast. Not very Belgian in the aroma. Flavor starts off with a slight hint of some citrus hops, dark fruits, toasted malts, and some spices and finishes with almost nothing. Overall this really wasn’t that great but perhaps that’s because I was expecting more from Avery.
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
This beer pours a golden amber with a small white head. Wow this is a very ordinary and blandish beer! Not much character, very little flavor and no good aromas like a good belgian. This is probably avery’s worst beer if you ask me. Avery’s specialty brews tend to be good but some of thier mainline stuff is not! Oh well, good thing I only have to drink 2 more of these (I split the sixpack). Cheers!
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A too light, boring, bland beer that really lacks description in my view. I’m just not sure what this is except a fairly flavorless, uninteresting sort of brew. I had a Bud Light after this on the 4th of July (it was the only thing available) and there just wasn’t a big difference. Kind of tells you something.
