Salvation by Avery Brewing

Salvation by Avery Brewing is a very good Belgian style golden ale.

Salvation is part of Avery’s “Holy Trinity of Ales”. I have tried The Reverend before and loved it, I have yet to try “Hog heaven”.

Salvation has a fruity taste but is light and smooth and very drinkable. Overall I have liked most of what I have tried from Avery, so it was not a surprise that I liked this beer as well.

At 9% ABV it is a pretty strong beer but it is deceptively sweet, smooth and fruity for such a high ABV.

From what I can gather from the internet, this beer is supposed to have an inch or so of head. I did not get any head when I poured this beer, but that did not deter me from enjoying it. I have kept this beer in the fridge for several weeks … so maybe it lost some fizz.

Either way it still tasted great and went down smooth so I will try this golden Belgian ale again for sure.
