Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a dark amber close to brown color with a slight transparency about it. Finger’s worth of white foamy head sat atop and fell off at a decent pace. Light lace.
The aroma had some caramel/toffee maltiness then some light dark fruits, earthy hops and just a touch of sweet rye.
The flavor leaned towards the sweet side of the blend of the previously mentioned aromas. Carried nicely into the aftertaste and slyly moved the rye in a light spiciness in the finish.
The feel was about medium bodied, perhaps just a touch under with a fair sessionability about it. Since the sweeter side of the rye seemed to come out more, harshness was tame enough to allow the carbonation to prickle just a touch more. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, pretty good brown ale with the rye mostly tame. I’d still have again even if the rye didn’t come out as much as I may have liked it to.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a dark amber with small beige head leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is caramel, raisin, rye. Medium mouth, similar flavors to nose, light roast, good.
