Oakes (8057), gone rambling, Vietnam Feb 11, 2006 Draught, at the brewpub Hazy light amber colour. Has a spicy rye character. Very dry, moderate bitterness with lightly toasty malts. Simple, but the rye lends some interest. beerguy101 (3861), Newark, California, USA Aug 19, 2004 Medium gold color. Small white foamy head. Aroma is fruity and sweet. A medium bodied ESB. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are bitter and slightly floral and grapefruity. The rye malts add a spicy sweetness to the beer. Interesting, but not very bitter. Think more of a mild than an ESB. Smooth taste. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
