Pour is a clear amber with a average white head. Aroma is malty and sweet with something like gingerbread. Flavor is again malty but think with a roasted nut thing going on after the swallow. Ok beer and right on for the style.

On tap at Meridian Pint, brewery release day. Welcome to the neighborhood! Poured a pretty hazy, orange-copper color, wispy head. Aroma was actually pretty light, not much there beyond light malts and some light hops. Flavor was light bready malt. Pretty sessionable.

Draft at Meridian Pint, brewery release day. Welcome to the neighborhood! This one poured a transparent ruby color, with a small head. Pretty decent lacing on the glass. The aroma is a nice malted one, with a note of black pepper and spices. Flavor is distinctively rye, with notes of cracked pepper and a nice citrus finish.
