Out of a bottle this pours a amber color with a light white head. Very complex flavors with rye being the leader. Tastes of toasted grains, bread and straw. Very bitter finish that leaves you really wanting another sip!
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 woodychevy (661) - - AUG 30, 2014
Half pour at Foggy Mountain Brewpub. Beautiful appearance- rich copper color with generous, thick white head. Decent legs. Nose is full of pine and citrus and caramel malts- taste follows. Finishes on the bitter side and rye is there, but could even be more pronounced for me. Somewhat slick/oily mouthfeel in a very satisfying way. Does not drink like the 7% or 90IBUs it has- really well done. One of my favorites from these guys.
