| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 15, 2007 Decent, I just couldn’t get into the rye taste as I am not a huge fan of rye bread. The taste and finish are overwhelmingly of rye bread, but I got used to it by mid-bottle. crizay (1050), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 13, 2007 Hazy copper pour, small white head. Aroma is citrus hops. Flavor is grapefruit hops and a slight caramel sweetness which leads to a floral and dry bitterness that really lingers. Easy drinking with low bitterness but big on hop flavor. A very enjoyable pale ale, I could see myself drinking a few of these and I like it a lot better than the RYE Squared. ucusty (1908), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 8, 2007 Thanks to jimbowood for passing this my way. Pours lightly cloudy copper with a soapy light beige head. The aroma is a bit of a sweeter malt bill than expected for a rye. There is toasted caramel malt, tropical hops and some earthiness. Medium body with fairly gentle carbonation. The flavor starts with honey, subdued maltiness, spicy bitter hoppiness with a bit of a creamy mouthfeel. The finish has more more hops, but they are all quite gentle and not very bitter - citrus, pineapple and a lingering pine / grapefruit affect. A nice unique pale ale.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 7, 2007 Poured from bottle....nice white head with nice bubbles..nothing monstorous though and not long lasting. Nice hoppy aroma...and golden orange in appearance. Nice flavor at the start with a nice subtle punch of bitter....does not have the staying power on the palate...I like this one. wingman333 (248), San Antonio, Texas, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Jul 6, 2007 Draft...average beer...some spice, some hops and bitterness. It left me wanting more. Saarlander (1579), Rancho Cucamonga, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 18, 2007 Bottle, mystery swap 2.0 from Turdferguson. Hops, some sweetness on the aroma, orange pour, slight head, some hops to start, but dominated by the malt, very dry finish, slight fruitiness(citrus) would make a great session beer for me, decent but mild. millysdaddy (67), Alexandria, Virginia, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 12, 2007 12 oz. bottle from TURDFERGUSON - thanks! Pours a clear golden with a small white head. Has a mild, floral hop aroma with some sweet maltiness. The flavor is balanced between citursy hops and sweet malts with a dry, bitter finish.
