Can to nonic pint glass.
Appearance: nice looking dark red color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: lots of rye - deep floral, sweet and spicy rye tones running through a great dose of piney hops, great balance of malts entering in
Flavor: follows the aroma - sweet, spicy and floral character, crisp spicy and floral rye aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, more of a sipper, some rye sting but I expected that, good carb, finishes crisp floral, semi-dry and spicy
Overall: a stellar rye beer, not sure if I would go as far as to label this a Roggenbier but hey, I've only had so many Roggenbiers in life. Still, I'd return to this.

On tap at The Office Tavern and Grille, Morristown, NJ when I visited my sister.
Appearance: bronzed yellow color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which slid off nicely and left some sly lace
Aroma: deep piney hops, lots of dankiness, some tropical fruits, clean malts underneath
Flavor: bittersweet and danky adding some oniony character here; sly aftertaste of piney hoppiness
Texture: medium to full bodied, good sipper, some chewiness to the hoppiness, finishes with that hoppy crisp bite I was about to expect
Overall: had one before dinner came and had another with dinner and was certainly one great night.

16 oz can, 1/25/26. Darker orange. Bread, caramel. Some herbal notes. Very drinkable. Pretty solid. Surprised I've not previously rated this, I've definitely had it before.

Pour at Snallygaster 2025. Poured a very hazy orange color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was floral notes, some orange, and some fresh, green coffee. Flavor was a bit too much coffee, bitter. Alcohol is way too high for what this is, there's zero reason for this beer to have an ABV in the double digits.

Pour at Snallygaster 2025. Poured a clear golden color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was funky, with a pleasant fruity character. Pleasant carbonation, with a slightly bitter finish.

Sample at Denver Rare Beer Tasting XVI (Last Call) on 10/09/2025. Clear golden color with a thin white head that burns away steadily to a film. Short strings of lace. Aroma of yeast, truffles and malt. Full-bodied with flavors of fruity Belgian yeast, earthy truffles and biscuit malt. The finish is earthy and fruity with a truffle and yeast aftertaste. Interesting beer and pretty good all around.

Growler fill from Bottle Caps, Watertown. A low tan head with sustained lacing. Chocolate, cream, coffee and bubblegum on the nose. An appealing, slick and balanced IS. Chocolate, ground nuts, mild coffee and a lactose creaminess all add to the experience. A touch of alcohol warmth, roasted malt and toffee as well.
