3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 rollinsr (504) - Atlanta, GEORGIA - JAN 10, 2015
A little darker than the traditional Reclaimed. The coffee addition adds a lot to this beer making it far superior to it's predecessor in my opinion.

Interesting beer
amber? Brown? Whatever? Dark clear brown pour. Aroma had a ton going on
definitely coffee, vanilla, oak, and earthiness (from the rye). Taste follows with some fruitiness present as well. Dry finish. Overall, everything was balanced real nicely. Truly unique.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Cybercat (4180) - Georgia, USA - NOV 26, 2014
Comes out of the growler clear, dark, coppery amber with a fairly thick buff head. Crisp, malty aroma has a strong overtone of hay and woody hops, plus a fruity hint. Flavor brings out more wood, plus a hint of coffee that comes forth particularly in the finish. Firm texture is quite fizzy, leaving a woody and hoppy finish with a roast coffee undertone. Come to the misty valley and enjoy!
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 chinchill (3239) - South Carolina, USA - NOV 16, 2014
Misty Valley Reclaimed Rye amber on tap in Atlanta. Special release. 5.5% ABV
This is the regular version with the addition of Misty Valley coffee.
A great brown ale with perfectly balanced contributions from oak aging, coffee, and spicy rye.
Neither bold nor challenging. The mild but pleasing aroma only hints at the spectacularly good flavor. Best American brown ale ever?
