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.

Pours clear golden with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of malt, yeast, pepper, berries, and some fruits. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

22oz bottle. Clear orange-amber hue with a thin ring of white head. Spicy and caramel nose. Bready and citrus aroma. Mildly lively with a sweet caramel, alcohol flavor. Thick and cloying. Tingling effervescence. Long and smooth with a dry long bitter hop finish. Alcohol is rather apparent. Fruity and spicy notes. Almost peachy syrupy with a nutmeg, sweet bread flavor. Smooth and wonderful.

Hmm, well I’m not really sure what the big deal is with this one. It approximates the good Belgians, with light phenolic and banana notes, along with a fairly interesting hop aroma, piney and almost citric. Further, there was a bit of a strong and simplistic caramel note, so that in the end, this seemed too sweet and lacked the fluffy body of the great examples. Also, I noticed this had no yeast sediment at all, and poured a very bright and crystal clear orange color.

Indra (2323) - Overland Park, Kansas, USA - MAY 11, 2003
Fruity, spicy, perfumy and honeyish aroma, with something like sparkling white grape juice, peach and golden apple, and a very slight earthiness. Golden amber in color, with a quickly fading head and low visible effervescence. Flavor is fruity, citric, malty and sweet, with some definite spices and pepper in the background. Finish sees the addition of some acidity and bitterness, also apparent alcohol. Fruity aftertaste. Pretty good but probably could have used another 18 months in the cellar.

Schroppfy (2319) - Łódż, Warsaw, Poland; Michigan, Ohio, USA - MAR 29, 2003
Pretty sweet, but not nearly as I might have supposed. I think this beer is this good because of the amalgam of Styrian Goldings (imparting an Englishy or Germanic quality) and candi sugar. Quite good. Great body. Alcohol gets stronger upon warming, as you might suppose.

Pours a clear light amberwith a white head. Smells yeasty. Sweet with yeasty and fruity aromas (apple). Full bodied. Very "Belgish".
