| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 4, 2009 It was odd to see a Bison beer in Colorado so I bought it, plus charity is cool. The color is dark red with a short head. The smell is spicy malts. The taste is also spicy but the rye is not overwhelming. Easy to drink but I would not want more than one.

Sugary caramel malty with twinges of alcohol heat on the aroma. Flavor is a little oakey, which i guess is the ’rye’ quality. More sweet caramel malt. A little syrupy bitter sweet on the finish.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 3, 2009 Butters Big Blowout tasting - Pours a hazy copper. Aroma of sweet malts with hint of rye. Similar taste but with a smoky hop finish. Lingering dry aftertaste. Enjoyable Barrios (858), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 3, 2009 Bottle at Butters Big Cellar Blowout! Pours an amber body and an off-white head. Brown sugar, spicy hops, and some rye. Taste caramelized malts and some rye...like honey-butter on rye bread. I like the hops on the finish. Indra (2030), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 2, 2009 22oz. bottle. Spicy, fruity aroma, lightly sweet, fresh and bready, with notes of caramel apple, citrus, red grape, toasty malts, dusty grains and the distinctive touch of rye in the foreground. Cloudy medium-dark red color, with a lasting, light tan head. Flavor is sweet and spicy, the rye and caraway seemingly apparent throughout, with plenty of toffeeish malt sweetness, pepper, dark bread, and a touch of earthy, herbal hop character and very mild bitterness. Smoothly effervescent mouthfeel, body is medium. Really not bad, I found that I consumed the bomber rather quickly. Bier brauen (214), Bremerton, Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 29, 2009 I thought this was a nice quality brew. Nice nose of malt. Dark, copper color. Very nice mouthfeel. Definitely not thin, but not too thick of body. Just right. Sweet malt and balanced. $3.00 for 22 oz. bottle at Tacoma Boys, you can’t beat the price.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 8, 2009 Crimson brew with a nice 1/4 inch khaki head. Smooth and refreshing. Caramel malt, toffee, and brown sugar; both in the nose and flavor. Can really only detect the rye in the finish. Nice carbonation. Sweet but not cloying.
