Aug 3, 2009 On draft at the Lancaster location. Light golden color, decent initial had that had weak retention for the style. Good lacing somehow. But all amazing from there on. Aroma featured some sweeter candy apple and light fruit malts, a firm black pepper presence and some off straw notes too? Flavor wakes ya the heck up with firm in your face pepper and hops and presumably the spicy rye bitter twangy malts. Something from that spice rack too herbs and spices blend. Phenolic character is firm. Light fruits are present, light bananas at wamer temperatures. Mouthfeel was light and full at the same time. Refreshing heck of a beer. Dang good. Fantastic, in my IH top five. Good and lively carbonation.

Aug 2, 2009 Poured a hazy golden color with a medium sized, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of rye malts, citrus fruits, coriander, lemongrass, toast, and honey. Taste of lots of chewy rye, citrus fruits, vanilla, honey, tart wheat, grass, and a dry finish.
