Very interesting beer, thick and with rye very present. Balenced, full flavored andnicely carbonated. Grapefruit hoped nose, some rye hidden in there. Malt, hops, some sweetness(malt?), rye, molasses, with a thick mouthfeel.

Aug 29, 2008 08 vintage from 4 months or so back. thanks KP. cloudy amber with a medium off white head. Caramel, orange, and floral hop aroma. Flavor is orange citrus, quite a bi of rye, sweet caramel malt. Thick sweet finish with a good bit of carbonation. This was probably a hoppy beast when released, but held up pretty well.

Aug 28, 2008 Dark amber color. Lots of hops in the aroma. Taste is a wallop of pine and hops up front, and a dry finish from the Rye. Lots of sweet malt in there to balance it out. Really good stuff. I would have liked this Rye aspect in the Roggen beer of theres.

Aug 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours a cloudy copper color with a thick white head, tons of lacing. The aroma is tons of rye and hops. The flavor was just awesome; a rich and bitter hop bite throughout, some bready rye flavors balance it out well. Some honey and citrus too. A semi-sweet rye finish with a touch of banana and malt. Very nice. I am starting to fall in love with Terrapin, this beer kicks ass.
