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.

Hazy orange with a thin head that falls. Aroma of fruit, sherry, and alcohol effervenscence. Acidulated malt sweetness with prune notes. Bold spicy hop presence in finish. A bit under attenuated for my taste.

timjertson (27) - Waseca, Minnesota, USA - APR 29, 2007
Hazy golden color with thick slowly falling head. Malt, hops and stone fruits in the aroma. Fruity, spicy, stone fruits, and cloves. Banana there but pleasantly light. Good rich mouth feel.

buckybeer (666) - Eau Claire, Wisconsin, USA - APR 26, 2007
Pours a dark slightly hazy golden with a medium lasting head. Aroma is pretty big spice, ripened fruits, yeasts. Flavor is pretty bold. Spicy malts, soap, bitter hops, boozy bananna. Average overall.

MrBendo (1064) - Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA - APR 24, 2007
Pours yellow/amber with a large, almost cascading head. Fair lacing. Yeasty aroma (bananas) and sweet malts dominate. Taste was bananas, cloves, pears, apricots and a little spice. Alcohol was well covered. Medium to heavy body. Well done overall.

jarspag (605) - Orange County, California, USA - APR 16, 2007
Didn’t dig this one all that much - tend to enjoy the darker belgian style brews more than the light. Taste of peach, spice, banana, and mild hop.

Carl99Fan (187) - Suwanee, Georgia, USA - APR 16, 2007
Poured cold into a chalice glass from a 650ml bottle. Orange hue, fruity aroma. Very surprised how great this tasted. Hoppy, sweet peachy taste...goes down smoothly. Couldn’t tell the ABV was 9%.
