The bottle itself looked more like a wine bottle than a beer bottle, and with the help of a hearty chili bread bowl I drained it. It had a nice sweet taste. Josh, the bartender, said it was 'hoppy'... I'm still trying to figure out exactly what that means.
The other night we went to Old Chicago with James & Michelle (excellent pizza by the way) and I had another IPA (India Pale Ale), this one was a Highland Kashmire IPA. Not so good. The funny thing about Old Chicago is that they have a very similar beer tally club to the Flying Saucer called the World Beer Tour. Old Chicago's Tour has probably been around longer than the Flying Saucer's, who knows, I really don't feel like looking it up. I know I won't be doing both though... One beer drinking club at a time people... one beer drinking club at a time.
Speaking of that, the Wold Beer Fest is this Saturday!
Anyway, here's the stats:
Avery Maharaja (BTL)
Container: Bottled
Style: India Pale Ale
Brewer: Avery Brewing Co.
City: Boulder,CO.
Country: United States
Description: Double IPA: This IPA has such a smooth taste, although very hoppy the fruit taste balances it out to a creamy goodness. As far as the fruits, it had a nice peach taste to it. Not only is it smooth and creamy, but it has a dry crisp finish. This one is a sipper. It is a good tasty, well balanced and very drinkable double IPA.
