Draught @ Brouwer’s Café:   Deep amber, somewhat hazy, lively carbonation, a few rings of lacing.   Muted malty nose, subtle hop, even a little floral.   Malty tongue, smooth, soft sweetness, minor floral hoppiness.   Very well balanced.   Good combination of malts and floral bitterness.   Enjoying this one as it appears more malty than most I have had as of late.   Full bodied, somewhat thick mouthfeel.   Floral malty finish.   I am really impressed with this one.

Draught @ WABF 2008. Pours a clear amber color with a small white head. Sweet malty caramel aroma with some hints of rye. Sweetish malty nutty caramel flavor with hints of rye. Has a sweetish malty rye finish with hints of caramel in the aftertaste.

On tap at WABL Brew Fest 2008. Pours clear dark apricot with a lacy white head. Medium body & light carbonation. Aroma and taste of rye, earth and nuts, with a ’peachy’ quality to the taste. Semi-dry and lightly sour finish. The rye comes out in this one from start to finish.

Solid amber color with crisp head. Said to be hopped with Ahatnum and Simcoe, which has bit popping up a lot of recent in Big Tim brews. Moderately floral and fruity in aroma and flavor with a strong degree of bitterness that is more characteristic of a an amber.
