Sample at the Memorial Day Deck Beers tasting on 05/27/2013: Clear copper color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of hops and grainy malt. Light to medium body with flavors of peppery hops and bready malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a spiced rye hops aftertaste. Decent overall.

Growler from Blind Murphy’s. Nice copper color, with a small, off-white head. The aroma is mild rye, resin, herbs, and pine tar. Malty-sweet flavor, with a relatively mild bitterness through the finish. A metalic twang in the aftertaste. Light to medium body, a little acidic, crisp, and clean. Overall, this is a mild and drinkable rye IPA, but nothing special.

Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of SpringsLicker. Pours a cloudy deep golden with a white head. Rich caramel and perfumy hops in the nose. Fairly solid body, rich caramel, a sweet maltiness and a little perfumy hops leading to a rather bitter finish. Actually a rather decent IPA. 150313
