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.

Beer 41. A little cloudy, but pretty normal per the style. Spicy, but not really that complex, I could drink quite a bit of this.

nick76 (3461) - Tampa, Florida, USA - FEB 25, 2007
The aroma is complex with coriander, nutmeg, light fruit, yeast, malt, and alcohol. The appearance is hazy copper gold with a two finger head. The flavor is complex just like the aroma with a spicy peppery finish. The palate is smooth. This beer could be from several of the best breweries of Belgium and no one would even know it’s an Avery. Maybe I should say any of the best brewers of Belgium are close to the quality of Avery.

beerbuzzmontreal (3413) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - SEP 6, 2007
Pours a cloudy golden color with a thin white head. Aroma of honey, yeast and alcohol. The flavor has alcohol with honey and yeast. The body is light with a creamy texture and soft carbonation.

JK (3400) - Uptown, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - OCT 8, 2005
Avery did not live up to their name this time. This ale is fairly simple. There is a sweet malt aroma. The flavor has an odd herbal quality. Sweet, with a dry finish. Decent palate, fairly smooth, until it gets near room temperature and becomes more difficult to drink.

decaturstevo (3387) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - MAY 22, 2009
A light brown sugar, bread, and yeastiness on the nose of this light orange pour. A frothy white head and lace. A nice abv warmth, followed by, followed by an almost apricot, and an almost orange. A medium/full bodied beer with decent carbonation.

22oz Bomber - Gravity Room - Olympia, WA
Aroma – Malty Belgian flavor. Had some great spices and a high alcohol smell.
Appearance – Dark brown color, Clear with a thin head.
Flavor – The Belgian yeast flavor starts off then it goes malty with some fruity.
Palate – Good Belgian flavors this was not my style of beer.
Overall – This was a Belgian ale. Had a strong aftertaste with some fruity essence. Liked the beer but it is not my style.

ante (3375) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - OCT 1, 2005
(bottle sampled at Stockholm Beer Festival) Golden with a large fluffy white head. Dry aroma of oranges, white bread and pepper. Sweet flavour of oranges and spices with a really dry aftertaste of orange-peels, pepper, alchohol and hops. Great beer!

WeeHeavySD (3341) - San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA - SEP 10, 2006
22oz bottle. Pours a light straw with a generous foaming head. The arroma is light and fruit filled. The taste is smooth and light with a hoppy finish. Malt is almost absent from this brew, which clearly makes it a golden belgian strong. The smoothness of this beer is only interuptted by the slightly off putting bitter aftertaste.
