BeerandBlues2 (2514), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Jul 20, 2008 Draught at Buffalo Brewing Co. Pours sparkling and lightly hazy amber with an average, frothy, off-white head, somewhat lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (grain, straw, cereal, meal), heavy hops (flowers, resin, pine, grapefruit), average yeast (sweat) with notes of apple and pear. Medium bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation, and a bitter finish. Long duration, light sweetness, heavy acidity and bitterness.
kidmartinek (733), austin, Texas, USA Aug 14, 2008 Ours cloudy brownish amber. Aroma is bitter sweet hoppy. Not much lacing. Flavor is thick and spicy and hoppy. Finish is malty and clean. BlackDonald (1039), North Carolina, USA Jul 31, 2008 Hazy dark amber coloring, with afrothy ring of foam, receding into some clingy lacing. Soapy citrus hop nose with some orange citrus and spicy rye notes. Aggresive hops meet with a smooth chewy malt backbone. Well balanced and masks the alcohol extremely well. Great hoppiness that’s not overpowering but still assertive enough to grab your attention. SkyinBrian (403), Collinsville, Illinois, USA Jun 22, 2008 I like this brewpub is the whole frosted glass thing necessary? On a warm day the "frost" on the outside just seems to melt and you get a wet glass. Oh well...served a unfiltered red color in a big 22oz tumbler. BIG hop aroma, flavor is a bit balanced than the noze which was nice. A solid Rye-P-A. timmy300 (151), bloomington, Illinois, USA Jun 19, 2008 commercial description is accurate, this slightly murky, assertive ipa was served a tad on the cold side, the down side of being a beer made with rye is that i willl always think about hop rod, and be a bit dissappointed
