They should be good men; their affairs as righteous: But all hoods make not monks. Beneath a deep blanket of snow there is a cereal grain that can survive the harsh winters and acidic soils - RYE. Like a draped hood over a monk, it is the righteousness inside that shines.

16 ounce can. Amber orange color. Big bubbly beige head. Rich grainy malt nose with a touch of earthiness and brown sugar. Sweet toasted malt flavor has an underlying bitterness. The grainy rye character makes for a spicy backdrop. Finishes malty with a nod to the complex hops that seem to be hidden below the surface.

(Draught at Bishop’s Arms Folkungagatan, Stockholm, 7 March 2014) Reddish amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty nose with notes of apricots, orange peel, rye bread and resin. Malty, spicy taste with citrus, orange peel, rye bread and a generous resinous bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Spicy and quite tasty. Nice one.

Rcvd in trade.
The appearance has a hazy golden amber colored body with less than a half fingered white foamy head that when it dies there’s a nice clingy lacing that coats the entire glass.
The smell has a nice rye malt coming through (nice even though this is a month past its prime). Spicy malt tries to come through to combine with the hops, but has a sort of separateness to it.
The taste has a nice spice to it, yet there’s still a nice sweetness coming through. There isn’t much of an aftertaste and has a somewhat dry spicy finish.
On the palate, honestly, there really doesn’t seem much there, sure there’s a light sort of body to it (did it subside due to its age....? I dunno). However, I will say its sessionable - sure is as I’d have this with food. Carbonation is a bit smoother than most Rye Beers I’ve had.
Overall, I’d like to try this again fresher because I think this one could definitely be a front runner of its style, just a month past its prime and I still liked it for the most part.

Pours copper with a large head.Nose shows tropical fruit, including mango, papaya and lychee. A fair bit of sweet malt too along with a spicy rye bready note.Harsher flavours, not as sweet as the aroma would suggest. More bready and toasty notes. A fairly aggressive bitterness in the finish.Nice moderately high carbonation.

Can. Slightly hazy copper with a large off-white head. Subdued aroma of caramel, sour bread and spices. Sweet and bready with that sourish spiciness that says rye. Moderate bitterness. Pleasant creamy mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. Likeable enough, but there’s not much going on for the 6.3%.

Draft at Taps 25, Lansing. Hazy deep murky orange-brown body, thin to medium creamy head with legs. Sharp, spicy, grainy nose with firm sweetness. Lots of spicy, sweet, bitter citrus peel in the body. Toasty and prickly. Well-balanced and potent, with some sharp, bitter, warming elements in the finish. Solid.

Can. Pours a dark copper color with a medium white head. A mellow nose of grains and berries. The flavor is nutty, some spicy rye, light fruit, low bitterness. Bitter in the finish though with some nutty notes. Good.
