flutetokill (515), Fresno, California, USA Nov 25, 2003 Clear pale yellow color with a white head. Initially a cheap pilsner aroma, but developed more honey and spice aromas as it warmed. Spicy hops flavor, with a smokey aftertaste. Fairly thin, bubbly feel. loweredsixth (942), Fresno, California, USA Nov 25, 2003 Pale yellow color with a small white head. The aroma was, at first, that of a cheap lager. Later, it became more malty sweet with a nice spicy hops character. The flavor was an interesting mix of malty sweetness and spicy hops...with a distinct smoky aftertaste. Soft feel...medium thin consistency. Slick (1962), Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA Apr 6, 2003 I can't say this is a favorite of mine but it isn't to bad a brew.Nice reddish amber color,Aroma was malty and little else to this untrained nose.The taste was pretty decent with a malty start,an almost spicy flavor some hops thrown in there as well.I got kind of a sweet,hoppy,earthy after taste from this one still it was pretty good and my first organic brew to boot.I don't know if it will be a brew that i will frequent but if it's around i won't turn it down. Gusler (2655), Tucson, Arizona, USA Feb 7, 2003 The beer pours a hazy “Organic” yellow orange color, the head portly in size, creamy in texture and the color a very light tan, with the lace a thick covering sheet to seal off the glass. Malt aromas weigh heavy in the nose, earthy, with a certain mustiness that is common in organic beers, crisp and fresh, and a real treat for the schnozzle. Begins malt and lightly sweet, the mouth feel is middling, the finish has a light hop spicy bite, the carbonation tolerable and the aftertaste quite dry and long lasting. A fine drinking beer, one that would set well in any location, but with summer coming faster than I’d like a good Arizona Summer Beer.
Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Dec 28, 2002 My first impression was that this was a horrible pilsner. As the beer warmed, I could taste a fuller malty presence and I noticed yeast floating around in the beer. No huge rye taste present. A n ok beer, but not something I’ll drink again. Crit (2398), New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada Dec 23, 2002 Zach Diesel (907), Portland, Oregon, USA Oct 1, 2002 cloudy with more body than most organics but it tastes like that’s all they went for
rich42 (128), USA Aug 6, 2002 really nice pale rye ale. medium body, moderately hopped with some nice spiciness. the rye adds a dry finish and slight tang. well balanced.
