4.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This beer tastes like a light grapefruit IPA but also has a great rye undertone that makes this beer great all year long. Went to Founders and the beer smells along with the great beer on tap made it a must have. Comparable to Bells with a more open atmosphere, but quality of beer being similar.

Pours an amber colour with no head. Smells of rye and not much else, tastes of grapefruit and rye. A reasonable rye ipa, but no real depth or surprises.

Great beer! Aroma is peppery malty. Taste is spicy grains and slight floral hop taste.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
On draught at Trappeze pub. Labeled. 6.8%. BPours a brilliant and clear deep copper collor wth a thich and laating tan head.
Solid body and mouthfeel. Early hoppy flavor and pronounced hop bitterness. Late dry finish from the rye complements the caramel malt well.

Pours tawny crimson with an ivory colored head. Really dry and bitter. Rye really comes through on this one. One of the best widely available ryes out there.

Slight red tinges to this ale, it pours with a little head that disappears quickly. Very nice hoppy taste with an interesting finish.

This is my favorite Founders Beer. I drink this rye beer over any other. It is nice and smooth.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Definitely flavorful, and the some piney fruit flavors really popped for me. The Rye was an interesting twist, but not sure the bitterness was balanced in a way that was entirely pleasing to me. Still, it’s pretty darn good.
3.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Rye and malt aroma and a beautiful red appearance with a surprisingly balanced hoppy flavor and comfortable mouthfeel.

Pours an amber red with a large white foam head, in light it looks like fruit punch soda, pretty cool. Smells of citris, Rye Grain and bitter hops. Carmelized Malt to go along with Grapefruit flavor and quite bitter dry hops. This reminds me of Lagunitas sucks Holiday ale except more bitter and soul from the rye. Spices take away from the sweetness but mixes well, a complex beer with great balance.
