Sampler at the brew house. Spicy aroma with some sweet cereal grain background. Slightly hazy brushed gold with white head that collars. Spicy flavor is rough and not balanced. Some alcohol effects as well for a low alcohol beer.

On draught at the brewhouse. Nice spicy aroma from the grain. Pours a slightly hazy goldenrod with a solid white head. Flavor of sweet grain balances with spice from the rye. Full bitter finish makes for a well-rounded and pleasing beer.
