Tap @ brewpub. pours golden, white head. Aroma, light citrus hops. Flavor, just felt a lot hoppier than the average pilsener, borderline IPA. Some floral hops, grassy mouthfeel, some citrus, grapefruit and spices. Meh, quite boring.

Big thanks to jcwattsrugger for bringing this puppy to our weekly tasting. Pours deep gold with spotty white head. The aroma is bold spicy rye mixing with what might be hops with a bit of spiciness. There is a bit of an off note too. The taste has the same affect with spicy rye goodness, a thin layer of plastic bandaid and some sweet maltiness. I love the rye-ness of this brew. It ends with lingering spice and floral hops that head into the after taste.

On tap at the ‘010 FL Brewer’s Ball. Pours deep gold with loose white head. The aroma is sweet with spiciness, malts, spicy hops and a touch of grapefruit. The taste is pretty thin in body and becoming tart with spicy hops, a little bit of rye spice and then tart-ish with grapefruit like citrus hoppiness. Pretty darn thin overall but still pretty tasty and refreshing.

Golden-amber colour. Both bourbon and herbal, woody hops in the somewhat muted aroma. Wood, bourbon, vanilla, melon, cantaloupe - interesting and complex palate. Moderate bitterness. Off-dry finish with boozy burps. This came together surprisingly well.

Regular version
Kind of ugly - hazy dull amber. Aroma is mostly fruity hop. Fresh, fruity flavour. A little thin on the malts but it’s tasty enough. Score for this version only.

Cask, dry-hopped with cascade
This was woodier and spicier than the regular Toll Tender, and drier in the finish. Thus, I found it more well-rounded and generally more enjoyable. 3-7-7-4-14 = 3.5
