Think: fresh baked rye bread in a bottle with a hint of lemon and spice from the hops and yeast.

Bottle from Release # 11. Pours with a hazed, chestnut brown (relatively light hued brown) with a just off-white head with decent retention and good lace. Aromas are malty, bready, a bit spicy, rye bread, nutty, lightly herbal, very low earth, some citrus. Not much yeast character. Flavors are bready, malty, nutty, clean. Slightly oily mouthfeel which is a bit odd. Quite dry, spicy, low carbonic bite. A touch of currant or fruit ester (mild) in the finish. Lively bubbles, pretty dry. Straight forward, good, spicy brown ale like beer.

Bottle @ Brad’s house Minneapolis. Pours a hazy orangish brown appearance with a cream colored head. Bready, rich rye malty, somewhat spicy, light lemon aroma. A bit lemon citrusy, light fruity, rye bready, dull flavor. Not a whole lot going on but I guess it’s drinkable.

Bottled. A murky dark amber beer with a lazing orangey head. The aroma has notes of hops, straw, lemons, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, malt, alcohol, straw, and lemons, leading to a bitter finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle 65 cl. Pours a thick syrupy muddy opaque amber with a small and creamy off-white head. Pleasant fruity aroma. Surprisingly thick, sweet and grainy, again very fruity with a little late hops. The rye really adds here - in a pleasant way. 100912
