Dark brown, soft dark sugars and tangerine, almost smokey, intense with ashy taste and lots of bitterness. Rough around the edges.

Centennial. Hazy light tan. Centennial. Nose is grapefruity, light biscuity malt. A bit thin, husky character, touch of diacetyl late?

On tap at Flying Lion, pours a murky dark mahogany brown with a small tan head. Aroma reveals notes of toffee and subtle dark fruits. Flavour brings out cough syrup and other medicinal notes, along with caramel underneath. Something off about this - not authentic at all. Not an absolute disaster, but not good at all.

On tap at Flying Lion, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of chalk and lightly burnt roasted malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with roasted malt, chalk and dry unsweetened cocoa. Something off here, as with the Chocolate Cherry Stout. Not good.

On tap at Flying Lion, pours a murky black with a small tan head. Aroma is odd, with chalk and bitter cocoa - not getting any cherry. Flavour is messed up a bit, with chalk, vegetal notes, and bitter cocoa. Something had to go wrong here - shouldn't be sold. Train wreck.
mcberko (47051) reviewed Rye Stout from Flying Lion Brewing 10 years ago
Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
On tap at Flying Lion, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is quite earthy, with light roast, a touch of rye, and light spiciness. Flavour is spicy and fruity, with earthy roasted malt, spiciness from the rye, and light berry-like fruitiness. Medium-bodied, robust, but low drinkability due to the rye. Good, just not a fan of the harshness that rye brings.
mcberko (47051) reviewed Red Rye Session from Flying Lion Brewing 10 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
On tap at Flying Lion, pours a murky dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma is dry, with bready malts and light spicy rye. Flavour is well-balanced, with lightly spicy rye, bready caramel malts, and a dry palate to hold it all together. Cohesive and harmonious. Good stuff.

On tap at Flying Lion, pours a hazy dark golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of tropical fruits, citrus hops, and pine. Flavour is decently balanced, with lots of fruity hops, peaches and mango, and a dry crackery malt backbone. Very solid fruity IPA.

On tap at Flying Lion, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma is light, with crackery malt and very light floral hops. Flavour is on the fruitier side, with citrus and floral hops, light stone fruits, and crackery malt. Well-balanced and dry on the palate. Correctly made. Decent.
