crystal clear copper body with a great lasting off white head that leaves beautiful lacing. Solid toffee aroma with a hint of vanilla and just a bit of orange brightness. Bittersweet caramel vanilla raisin flavor with some spicy pine and a hint of orange. long balanced bittersweet toffee/caramel raisin orange finish lingering dry spicy pine and tart raisin. light to medium body. at first seems like an fairly uninteresting session beer but when you really give it some thought it becomes quite complex.

Dec 22, 2009 Murky red color with frothy white head. Mine had some particulate matter in there as well. I was worried about it at first since no one else has mentioned it but then I took a drink and it was pretty good. Even balanced malt and hops. Nice session beer.

Dec 21, 2009 12oz – The Perfect Pour. Dark copper, thick creamy off white head. Soft toasted toffee and earth aromas ride a light citric undercurrent. Nice balance as dried citrus and nutty earth flavors warm to a spicy rye and toasted caramel conclusion. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, lightly bittersweet finish. Surprisingly, this was very flavorful for a mild. Makes for a nice session brew on a cold snowy day…

Dec 20, 2009 Clear, reddish brown appearance with a small, off white head and good lacing. Sweet aroma of toffee and caramel. Noticable, but unobtrusive, rye flavor along with toasted malts. Spicy hops add an extra dimension to the taste and bitterness to the aftertaste. Medium bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel. A good session beer.

Dec 20, 2009 It’s hazy, dark, red amber with a creamy head. The aroma has notes of malt and light fruit – soft and mild. The flavor has a moderate sweetness and notes of malt, light spice and light fruit. It’s mild and easy to drink.

Dec 18, 2009 Deep caramel color, off-white head. Aromas of roasted barley, malt, and prominent weedy hops. Warms without being too heavy. Pretty good, simple, well-balanced.

Dec 13, 2009 A rye not a mild, recent bottle. Refreshin with that rye edge. Moderately pleasant aroma, arising from a medium yellow body topped by good amount of bubbled head. Lace follows through. Very drinkable, refreshing. Warms the body on a cold night.Average mouthfeel, a little edgy but smooth.Drying aftertaste.
