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.

Grovlam (4106) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - AUG 12, 2007
Bottle. Average bubbly beige head that mostly diminished. Somewhat clear amber color. Fair display of lacework. Aroma was a lovely mix of malty sweetness and light hoppy feel. Notes of caramel, fruit / peach, light floral notes, maybe hint of underlying liquorish. Medium to full bodied with an average carbonation and light dry and at the same time light thick texture. Well balanced between the moderated sweet malty base flavor and the floral hoppyness. Light dry and what I thought was lingering fruity sweet finish. Really well brewed I thought.

From a 22 oz bottle purchased in West Springfield, MA from Table and Vine and consumed last night on my recent trip east this poured a cloudy orange with a moderate sized off-whiite head and good thick lacing. Nose shows an aroma of fruits and lots of yeast, and a hint of hops. Moutfeel was creamy and a tad sticky. Flavor is sweet and shows caramel and apples. Finish is sweet and a tiny bit of bitterness shows through. Overall a bi differenet but in the end I finished the bottle so it was drainkable.

Mutualaid (142) - Texas, USA - AUG 10, 2007
Pours copper like an Oktoberfest with a think white head. Syrupy malt aroma with an assertive floral hop bouquet. Very hop forward with a sweet maltiness in the finish. A good beer but tastes more like an ESB than a Belgian Ale.

sampled on tap at Porter’s Pub, UCSD. Golden orange with no head. Fruity and sweet aroma and flavor. Spices include nutmeg and ginger. a hint of alcohol going down. Overall the sweet and the spice didn’t seem to blend well. I had trouble killing the pint
