Nose is moderate spiced rye and hops. The balance of the nose runs through the taste profile, featuring spiced rye, east coast hops, and soft, bready caramel malt. The balanced taste lasts through the taste experience. A very nice middle of the road rye pale ale.

Dark amber pour, small off white head. Cramel malt aroma, dry, grassy hops. Light nots of citrus and some spice from the rye. Nice mouth feel, good carbonation. Mineral finish, quite bitter, quick dry hoppy finish. Light roast and nuts, with some decent cereals.

Can. Pours a clear amber with a near white head that dissipates slowly to the edges and laces. Aroma has a combination of roasted malts and rye notes with a bit of bread backing. Flavor has a good amount of bread and rye notes with a touch of roasted malts underlying.

Smell of hops, grass. Copper colour, high beige head. Aroma of rye, hops, spruce. Bitter. Very flat carbon. Dry palate. Maybe lacking a bit of edge, but generally a nice rye beer.

Hazy, amber, with a thick head. The aroma is earthy, slightly cheesy hops, a dash of caramel and rich whole grain breadcrust. Mostly chewy character, moderate bitterness. So lots of rye character, but overall it makes for a pretty chewy beer.

Can from the LCBO. Pours a hazy deep amber with a generous pillowy off white head that quickly fades but leaves some nice lace. Nose is roasted malts, grain and caramel backed by some grass and earth. Rye malt provides a nice subdued level of sweetness that is a good base for a great level of hop bitterness through to a long dry finish. Mouth is medium and slick with average carbonation.
