This Beer Will Slay You


The Avery Brewing Company brews a wide range of excellent beers. I have tried most of their offerings and only disliked one of them (The White Racal). All the others were excellent and the Avery Maharaja might be one of their best. It is one largest IPAs out there and comes in around 9.6% alcohol by volume with over 100 IBUs (International Bitterness Units). Basically, it has a lot of hops and tons of malt that marry perfectly in your mouth. It has a grapefruity nose and a piney flavor. It is the definition of a resiny beer and tastes like Montana would if you could put it in a bottle. What makes this beer unique is it's thick malt character that can be described as chewy. Due to the malt, it comes equipped with a firm, thick body and full mouth feel.
Judging by the sword and the crazy look in his eye, this man will slay you for making fun of his hat.
