The Real Beer Expo - Rochester, NY, Oct. 21, 2006. zach8270 (1404), Henrietta, New York, USA Oct 22, 2006 (cask @ The Real Beer Expo - Rochester, NY) Amber in color with a thick and puffy tan head. Aroma is rather bland but has some hops in it as well. Flavor has a decent amount of hops and an interesting spicy note, possibly from the rye. Some malts at the end make for a very clean and smooth finish. A very different beer to be sure. IPFreely (1470), Niagara Falls, New York, USA Sep 20, 2006 Draught at the Buffalo Brewfest. Medium amber color with an off white head, not very long lasting. Decent base beer with noticible hops and a medium body. The rye adds a nice little slant on it with a spicier kick. Not bad. frylock (944), Buffalo, New York, USA Aug 29, 2006 From a growler purchased at Premier Gourmet: Amber body with a dense white head. Aroma of toasted malts and rye bread. Noticeable hop presence, a hint of citrus and moderate bitterness, but the flavor is mainly toasted malts and rye. Clean and very drinkable like most Flying Bison offerings.
