Poured from 500mL bottle. Hazed gold with small white head. Messy rye and flat hop expression with some vegetal notes. Could very well be the age (at least 6 months old, but no date stamp).

500mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out some spicy rye, vegetal notes, bready malt, and very soft hopping. Flavour has a strange herbal, vegetal note upfront, light spicy rye, and muddled earthy hops. Muddled, herbal and lifeless. Not sure what the goal of this was, but it's not terribly pleasant.
