I feel like I have always missed this beer for the 5 years that I lived in Lawrence. Its been produced for a while but it seems to have been made rarely in the past few years. Fortunately, on a quick trip to Lawrence this happened to be on tap. So, 10oz pour at the brewpub. A darker blunted copper color. Low clarity with a medium head that sticks around. Aroma is some sweet sticky malts, a bit English hops, and a tangy rye spiced character. Flavor is sweet with lots of spicy rye character. I enjoy the rye character but but the beer is really not my thang. Its got too much sweet and too much British character.

Tap, at the brewpub. Orangish red pour, with a fairly small off white head. Aroma is nutty and hoppy, and a bit of heavy grain (I will assume this is the Rye). Taste is bready with some tart sweetness towards the end. Something was not 100% right with this one, though still quite drinkable.
