| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 18, 2009 Bottle courtesy of bleeng. Hazed orange pour. Chlorine odor right up front, however I found out later that the Houston water supply has a chemical smell to it so this may be to blame. Some lighter grain scents but soapy. Taste is even but has a bland feel. Dry finish. RichardW (260), Carlisle, Cumbria, England

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 2, 2009 Aroma is a touch grassy, citrusy, not highly aromatic, very subdued... Slightly hazy amber with a thin white head and minimal retention... Slight hints of rye, not in your face, more bland malty than hoppy... Dry finish while somehow being oily... Decent beer, had me really wondering though... watson1977 (281), , Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 2, 2009 very grassy aroma...smells a bit like a bale of hay with some caramel malt to it. honey colored with a boring thin white head. flavor is pretty hoppy...grassy with a mildly skunky pop. very dry with a grassy lingering finish. this is a serviceable beer and not that bad but i would explore other ryes before returning to this one. pressboxjoe (74), , New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 30, 2009 Bottle. Pleasant musty hoppy aroma giving way to a bready yeastiness. Nice maltiness, good balance. Bit like an English pale ale for me.
