COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The success of HOG HEAVEN and THE REVEREND clearly demonstrates that beer drinkers are willing to embrace "BIGGER" beers. In the fall of 2001, we decided that a lighter BIG BEER would complement its darker colored predecessors. Salvation has luscious apricot and peach aromas delicately interwoven with spicy suggestions of nutmeg and cinnamon. This heavenly soft, champagne-like elixir is cellarable for 3 years.

Draft glass at the brewery tasting room. Bright golden and politely active. Could mistake it for Coors or something at first glance. But then you start drinking ... thick with esthery flavors and a definite alcohol kick. Easily drinkable big beer. (#3525, 2/22/2009)

elihapa (1369) - Honolulu, Hawaii, USA - FEB 21, 2009
Avery Salvation 2/20/09 (bottle, shared at tasting. Pours havy orange with a soap-like, big bubble head. Aroma has some candy sweetness, fruit and bubble gum. Palate is soft, medium-thick, and only moderately carbonated. Finish maintains sweetness, while yielding some alcohol flavors. A little boring for a Belgian strong ale.

Barrios (1243) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - JAN 22, 2009
Bottle with Butters and sixfootsix. Pours an off-white lacing head with a golden body that has a hint of amber to it. Smells of yeast and sweet fruit. Flavor is yeast, bread, and apricot. Finish is sweet and somewhat long. Overall a tasty brew.

Butters (2841) - Richmond, Virginia, USA - JAN 21, 2009
Fitting for my 777th rating. Bottle shared with barrios and sixfootsix at woody’s. Clear copper pour with good white head. Aroma really does have the fruity apricot notes as described, some yeast. Syrupy fruity and floral hops with a pine twist and noticable abv as it warms. Thought I was drinking an Imperial IPA for a second! Medium thick body with medium carbonation. Great label art.
