Pale rye and crystal malt up front that has a hay taste, faint citrusy hop that is on the sweeter side with bits of caramel. fromred2green (170), , Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours hazy yellow-orange with a small white head. Aroma of grain and hops - yes you can smell a distinct rye aroma. It smells like rye bread mixed with hops, which makes this beer interesting before even taking a sip. Flavor is mostly hops. Rye is barely distinguishable from the hops in the flavor but can be noted as a subtle finish. Overall very good. forsides (85), union, New Jersey, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 4, 2009 Light amber color, aroma of hops and a little spice. Flavor is slighlty spicy and moderately hoppy, but the mouthfeel is very thin. This beer is watery to me, decent flavor, but not enough of it. Average at best.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 3, 2009 Bottle; pours pale amber with slight haze, big frothy head produces plentiful lacing. Aroma is caramel, lightly of berries, honeydew melon, slightly grapefruity-citric, and with a hint of rye. Flavor begins with a slightly bitter and resinous tension but resolves into a citric-berries, buttery bread, and melon sweetness punctuated citric and floral hops. Also some brown sugar and coffee notes come through. Palate is slightly too effervescent. DrnkMcDermott (1861), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 24, 2009 12 oz. bottle, trade with Daknole. Light amber color, swirling bubbles lead to a rocky light head. Spicy smell that’s part hops and part rye. Bottle is best by 8/5/09, so hops may have started to fade. Sharp APA hop flavor, not a citrusy cascade/amarillo bomb, but more of a well-hopped Pils. Again, spicy accents added by rye. Hops become more assertive toward the end, in fact, the foam at the end is quite hoppy. Even though this bottle indicates it’s contracted to Flying Dog, this is a style that could become a nice Southern style beer.
