On tap at Jimmy,s 43 for the Duck Off. Served in a chimay glass pours deep amber with one finger sized beige head. Nose of smoke and malt. Tastes very malty sweet, peat smoke, carMel, earth, and light pine. Pretty decent and warming finish. A tad too sticky on palate for me

On tap. Pours with a clearish bronze-brown body with a lasting off-white head. Aromas are malty, brown sugar, caramel, medium esters, roast and light citrus. Flavors are roasty, bready, malty, caramel, and a light hop character (citrus). Very lively carbonation for the style and a bit on the drier side. Still malt forward with a very light roasted character. Nice mild.

Draught, 6.1%. Coffee-like aroma, a little sweet. Black colour, small stable light brown head. The flavour is roasted, has a little coffee. Some roast barley bitterness. A bit of alcohol which also gives it an OK solid mouthfeel.

Draught, 7%. Fresh-cut grass aroma, a bit herbal. Cloudy amber colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is a bit like the aroma, grassy and herbal, but not really in the good way. OK bitterness, but a bit sour.

Draught. Weak fruity aroma, slightly yeasty. Very pale yellow colour. Very small white head. The flavour is a bit yeasty, has a bit of strange yeast. Rather citric finish.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
Location: Draft at RnH, 8/8/11
Aroma: The nose is fairly light, some citrus, spice, and yeast/wheat notes
Appearance: It pours a clear golden color with a white head and some lace
Flavor: The taste is fairly simple, lightly sweet, and a bit of tart and sour notes
Palate: The mouthfeel is fairly light and clean, this one drinks decently
Overall Impression: This is my first rating from Barrier, and another new (to me) brewery from NY. This brew is not terrible by any means, but it is a bit on the dull side. Drinkable, and good enough, but I wouldn't rush out for it again.

Draft @ Get Real NY Belgian fest. Pours a light hazy mahogany. Taste is spiced bread, slight barnyard, tart fruits, some earth, and a hint of caramel sweetness to finish it off.
