22oz. Pours copperish, thick off-white head. Aroma of rye, hops up front, light malt, hints of spices and pine. Flavor was surprisingly good. Right balance of hops and rye, and somehow the palate was nicely toasted and malty. Hints of coffee mixed with the rye, adding citrus hops in the finish.

Courtesy of sebletitje. Pours clear gold with straw hues and white head. The aroma is sweet with fruity esters and floral hops as well as rose pedals and grains. The taste is a bit on the bright side with spice and acidity followed by a shallow hollow graininess.

Bottled. An unclear dark golden beer with a small sediment floating around with a bubbly off-white head. The aroma has notes of dusty hops, malt, fruit, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, bread, citrus, caramel, dust, and malt, leading to an orangey finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Cloudy deep blond color; big head. A yeasty Ale, it reminds me more a poor French Ale than any ESB. Ordinary bitterness. Quite bad.
