12oz bottle. A pretty nice rye-honey beer, certainly not an APA. Leans into the sweet malts, but there is a light, pleasant hop balance too. Kind of fleshes out the honey malt tones, but the rye is still sort of drab. Probably tasted a whole lot better on the pilot system before they dumbed it down. Drinkable, but pretty much just another tick.

Bottle. Honey, orange, rye malt, and hay aroma. Amber with large off-white head. Moderately sweet honey, citrus, light rye malt, and mildly bitter hay flavor. Body on the light side. Decent, easy drinking.

Bottle from gun town. Pale with a big foamy head the=at does not fade. Good solid fresh beery aroma. Rye punches thru with its typical bitter bite. Even tho it say lightly hopped, plenty of hop bitterness. Probably a little better than I thought it would be.

Bottle pour into nonic pint glass from Hannaford. Appearance is clear amber with light sparkle, 2-finger width frothy head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is rye, vegetal, cardboard, light herb/grass, mild late sweet hint of honey. Taste is rye, light grass/herbs, weak nondescript malts. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, soft-to-average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, this is strongly rye, as it should be. Everything else is understated.

Bottle: Clear, deep, golden-amber with a frothy beige head. Grain, rye, honey aroma. Taste is mildly sweet, rye malt, mild honey.....a bit of herbal bittering. Not bad....but nothing really stands out in any of it’s elements, however.

Better than I thought it would be, with a tangible rye presence and thankfully subtle honey sweetness. Slight citric hoppiness plays nicely with the honey and malt on the front, while the rye comes through on a lingering piney finish. A bit too middle-of-the-road to be memorable, but the pour is pretty, and the dry back end makes the honey notes bearable.
