Can to pilsener glass, the appearance was a glossy yellow color with a slight transparency about it. Light lingering lace after the head dissipated.
The aroma had some spicy to sweet grassy and white pepper hop smells. Light biscuits, somewhat sweet.
The flavor was moderately sweet with the spiciness trying to make a good effort to balance. The aftertaste was semi-sweet with a bit more spiciness coming in. The finish was quick and somewhat spicy.
The palate was between light and medium bodied with a pretty good sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, pretty nice pilsener that I would have again.

The appearance was a mostly black color with a foamy off white head that dissipated at a good pace. Moderate lace.
The aroma had some leather, smoke/ash, some roasted malts and a light earthy/grassy hoppiness.
The flavor lead with the leather to smoke/ashy sweetness. Some sweet meat. Moderate amount of roast came in somewhat underneath. Light aftertaste of the smoke hitting the finish in the same way.
The feel was about medium bodied with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good and the ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, that’s a pretty good smoked beer. Don’t think it could compare to Alaskan’s, but hey, this is up there.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt amber color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a moderate pace. Light stringy lace.
The aroma had some roasted grain, somewhat floral and citrusy, yet a semi-pouncing spicy rye with some sweet tones coming through. Malt bill seemed nice and balancing.
The flavor had a nice blend of the sweet to the spice, taking the malts to the sweet and spicy nature of the rye. Nice floral and spicy quality in the aftertaste and finish.
The feel was almost medium bodied with a decent sessionability about it. Good carbonation and ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, nice rye beer or amber ale with rye in it, whatever this was supposed to be, just good all around.
