Commercial Description:
Pours a spectacular crimson red with a creamy tan head. Brewed with four varieties of Belgian caramel malts imparting a sweet richness. Reds Rye is impressively balanced with its hop bitterness and floral bouquet achieved from the dry hop. In the finish, the generous amount of malted rye used accentuates a spicy crisp finish.

A red amber in color the beer with a modest off-white head. Aroma is very resiny with lots of bitterness, some floral notes, a light rye coming through with the caramel sweetness of the malt at the end. Flavor starts off with a strong resiny bitterness, slight grapefruit bite in there as well but the middle is pretty dominate of malt sweet caramel malt and some rye malt with a bitter tongue puckering ending. Overall a solid beer and one I will enjoy again as a consistent beer to pick up.

Pours reddish amber with a thin of white head. Great aroma that is piney, resiney hops and rye malt. Taste is bitter piney hops, rye maltiness, and some fruity (grapefruit and pineapple?) hop flavor as well.

Bottle. The pour is great - very nice deep red amber color, with a large beige head that lasts throughout. The aroma is big, malty, and complex - some piny hops detected too. The taste is pretty solid too. A big malt body followed with a strong strong presence of hops. A very delicious brew. Only thin con would be a slighter lighter palate.

My first rye ale, and I am hooked! Lovely hazy burnt orange with creamy off-white head. Sticky lacing all the way down. Spicy grain and floral aroma. Big malt countered by big hop flavor, spicy rye is clearly present while not overpowering. Crisp, dry finish literally begs for another. Excellent all the way around.

Poured from a 12oz bottle. Created a 1inch creamy head with a orangery red color. This beer gives a spicy sent reminding me of an Harvest Fall. Starts with a with the sweet hops and ends with a boozy malt finish and leaves your lips sticky. Great full body beer.
