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.

Tap at Barcade: Slight haze to the golden pour and topped by a white ring of head. Spicy nose with some sage and thyme along with other peppery alcohol esters. Body is medium, with a honeyish sweet background overall. Lots of various spices in the flavor with thyme and peppery alcohol, which dominate. A bit simple, but drinkable.

Bottle. Golden/yellow color, white head. Fruity, yeasty flavor, quite malty and with some citric notes. Yeast and malt flavor, quite nice fruity notes, some alcohol, nice body.

Really nice american belgian ale. Easy drinking for a "big beer", lots of flavor with a fruity, malty and big spiciness. Some noticeable alcohol but big sweetness masks it well

Poured from a bomber with a very crystal clear med-yellow color. It had a vibrant white, tightly bubbled head and laced the glass nicely. Had typical belgian yeast aromas and a contrasting sharpness and softness from the strong malt background. Finished med-dry.

Clear golden with tiny short lasting head. Sweet aroma with fruit, yeast and caramel notes. Same goes for the for the sweet flavor.

yespr (20653) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - FEB 20, 2008
22 fl oz bomber. Pours hazy orange with a lacing off-white head. Spiced aroma, slight herbal and carboard-like. My wife immidiately said: wet socks :(. Flavour is clearly with notes of Belgian yeast but also undefineable spiced. Sweet and slight woody with a lingering fruity and liqourice and slight peppery note into the finish. Ends with a fruity hoppy note. Strange and without balance. I would once again prefer a Belgian style from Belgium and an American style from America.

Draft. clear lemon, light urine color. thin surface head. Faint yeast hints. Very Victory golden Monkeyh like, though with less force and more watery. Ok.

Light blondish ale. Tiny bit of malt. Hey. It’s good to see them finally enter our market. Salvation is the nice Belgian style that overshadows a good chunk of the market.
