BEER OF THE WEEK!!!


This weeks beer is Avery Karma.

This sexy belgian style session ale hails from the Avery brewing company of Boulder Colorado.  5.2 ABV comes out orange honey gold on draft with a sweet fruity aroma and a nice two fingers of head.  A surprising amount out flavor for a beer this mild, a hint of Apricot and orange blossom with a nice backbone of yeast and stale hops.  This a is a lovely summer sipper that I will be tracking all summer.  

I almost wish it was marketed differently because the Belgian style listing is a bit misleading, it doesn't have those huge spicy flavors I tend to associate with the big Belgians, but it isn't in the same weight class.  For the price and the potency it is a pure Karmic delight.
