Six is a dark rye beer with layered flavors including chocolate, caramel, pepper, wood, cherry and tropical fruit. It starts semi-dry and smooth and finishes fully dry and tart with a small bite from the hops. The overall balance of the Six makes it easy to pair with richly prepared meats along with many harder cheeses.

This rye saison is dark and fruity. The sad thing about traveling is I bought too much beer and now I have to drink it because it's too much to carry. #firstworldproblems

Bought at Liquor Shed.

Pours a clear reddish brown, great head of almost tan foam, pretty good lacing.

I smell pitted fruit, rye, caramel malt. Overall, definitely on the malty side.

Rye is upfront and somewhat spicy. Caramel malt adds some sweet notes, fruit is subtle, get some nuttiness.

Medium body, carbonation is spritzy.

Enjoyable. Alcohol does provide some warming.
