Oct 27, 2007 A good hop aroma, herbal and some pine. Balanced by sweet malt, and more hops in the flavor. This beer could probably fit in the American pale ale category. Copper color and well carbonated.

Oct 16, 2007 Cloudy, thick maroon with a frothy off white beige head. Smell is bittersweet malt with a lovely rich earthy hop aroma. Taste is somewhat more light bodied than expected, with a smooth earthy, grassy, faint sweetness. Nice rye flavor, and a quality beer that suffers from a metallic finish however.

Oct 11, 2007 Updated: Mar 22, 2008[Re-rate 3/22/08] Gorgeous brownish red pour, some small bubbles, and the largest creamiest beige fluffy head ever (bigger and thicker than most rootbeer floats - 54F). Lots of yeast settles at the bottom once the head dissipates. Very pungent malted rye aroma, slightly vinous and sweet with a touch of hops. Palate is great for the amount of malts, not overly sticky and the carbonation isnt annoying, however its a little thin. Slightly vinous from the rye with some great crisp bitter hops. Lots of yeast in the finish. The malted rye really adds a mellowing characteristic, that is no-doubt more noticeable from the past 5 months of aging. I don’t know if its better now, but it is quite different. Probably oxidized a bit, which isn’t really a bad thing with this rye beer... especially if you like rye whiskey.
