This poured a a nice amber color with a descent off white head. Great hoppy aroma with a nice side of rye. I love rye beers! Flavor was well balanced. Good hop bitterness throughout with a nice caramel maltiness in the middle. I actually had this at the beach on a hot summer day, it was a perfect match! This ain’t no Hop Rod Rye, but almost as good! Thanks Chris! Rciesla (3750), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 20, 2008 16 oz, on tap at Vintage. Pours amber with a 1 cm off-white head. Aroma is a sweeter citrus and a little malt. Initial flavor is a bold maltiness, slight rye and hop notes. Flavor becomes drier at the end. The taste is by far the best part of this red ale. Some lacing, light carbonation, light to medium body, and well hidden alcohol. Drinks well and will continue to consume as long as its on tap. MaltOMeal (653), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA
