| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 28, 2009 Courtesy of markwise. I finally get to try this beer. Pours a very striking clear amber with a thin tan head. The modest aroma is spicy rye mixing with modest pine hops and crystal sweet malts. The taste is tasty (?) with full rye goodness flowing into a smooth sweet load of crystal malts and sugary sweet malts. It continues that way as the finish approaches where notes of roasted malts, some more crystal malts, a bit of pine hops and lingering rye goodness close out the experience. Yum.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 23, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear deep amber/brown with a small light tan head. Aroma of sweet malt, jam, sugar. Flavor of caramel malt, a touch of rye graininess, sweet molasses/sugar. Not overly sweet but pretty "blah" overall. It’s not bad, but a little sweet for my liking.
