Bottle in Lancaster - Poured a clear amber brown, small head that simmered away quickly, no real lacing. Grains and rye on the pallet with a little bit of pale bitterness. Malt smoothness that was rather nice. Pared well with ribs. Low-even carbonation dry finish.

Poured an orangish yellow color with a white head. Aroma was really sweet and malty with some caramel and rye showing through. Flavor was pretty bland, seemed just like apremium lager with a little biut more flavor, not really any rye flavor at all.

Bottle. Light amber in color, offwhite head. Malty sweetness abounds on the palate along with a little grain, not enough for my liking. I swear all the beers that Lion Brewery does taste similar - I think it’s the water.

Bottle - Amber colored beer with white head. Caramel malty aroma. The flavor is quite creamy with rye and malt flavor. It reminds me of a British bitter.

Bottle. Amber pour. Aroma is fruity, earthy with light caramel, rye and sweet malts. Taste is malty, semi-sweet, mild sourness/tartness, slightly hoppy, more earthiness and some soft grains. Rye is there but not overbearing. Body is medium with a creamy carbonation. Ends with more caramel, toasted and semi-sweet malts, soft earth and fruit and rye grains. The tartness fades here as well. Good stuff!
