Tap at Dancing Camel, Tel Aviv. Rough on the palate but large in flavour, this rye ale is a bit smoaky and oaky but the ending brings it down.

Bottle [from Euro Swap thanks to Tomer] @ home. Clear golden color, medium sized fizzy white head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is herbs, spices. Taste sweet, herbs, spices. If there's any oak in there it's overpowered by the herbs and spices. It's actually a quite well balanced herbal / spice beer but I really dislike herbs and spices so it's really nothing for me.

Bottle, smallish bubbly head, aroma of hay and caramel, flavor of hay and caramel with a hint if wax and maybe fruit, light and just a touch coarse bitterness. Quaffable but pretty simple.

Bottle [from Euro Swap thanks to Tomer] @ home. Hazy orange color, medium sized white head. Smell and taste malts, rye, hops, definitely some oak influence there. Finish is oak malt bitter. Decent body and carbonation. Quite nice.
