12 ounce bottle from And Beer, Athens. Pours a hazy copper color with a medium sized creamy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of rye, raw malt, candied citrus, pine, caramel. The taste is toffee malt, rye, citrus. Medium bodied, good balance. Nice beer, as per usual from these guys.

12oz bottle. Murky amaber-tan body. Thin, steady white head. Spicy sweet rye aroma. Clean malt-centered body. I’m not really that into amber malt or rye, but this is OK. A little wobbly, odd, but well settled in quality malt tones.

Tea brown with a short, tan head. Rye malt, leafy hop aroma. Taste is caramel, rye, herbal bittering. Smooth....even.... Pretty decent.

fairly rare beer. big foaming head. doesn’t smell to strong, has a slight hop olfactory. big bitter impact, sizzly mouth coating stuff, wew. really sets in after a few moments. the head on this beer is king! yes big foaming nasty nellie of a bitte beer. the sizzle on this almost makes the terrible bitter linger acceptable. Finish as stated, long piercing bitter arrow down yer gullet. Must be more than 6%. uea, mays well call it a IPA.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, no bottle dating(but this can’t be too old). Big pop of carbonation upon opening. Pours a very hazy reddish orange color with a huge 2-3 finger light khaki head that lasts forever. This took forever to fully pour in to the glass. Obscene amounts of carbonation streaming up from the bottom of the glass. Aromas of grapefruit, caramel, rye, toast, orange rind, pine, and light herbal. Ok aromas, but it is difficult to really smell anything through 3 fingers of head that wont go anywhere. Taste of grapefruit, caramel, pine, rye, toast, orange zest, floral, and herbal. Fair amount of bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of citrus, rye, caramel, toast, and herbal on the finish for a bit. Good balance of bitterness and sweetness; with good flavor balance as well. No cloying flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a fairly creamy and crisp mouthfeel that is good. Alcohol is well hidden with only a slight warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a good rye beer. The obscene over carbonation almost killed it for me, but after swirling out some of the carbonation it turned out pretty good. Some nice balance of flavors; very smooth to drink. I can bet this is a nice one with proper carbonation levels.

Sample at the DBLDP on 09/02/2012: Dark amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes quickly to an outer ring. Small patches of lacing. The aroma is rye spices, malt and hops. Light-bodied with flavors of rye malt, grassy hops and a bit of fruit. The finish is hoppy with a rye aftertaste. Decent overall.
