not good at-tall. Very little in the way of spicy rye flavor, or hop character. a corn like flavor similar to many macro lagers.

Clear golden pour, medium sized thick white head. Aroma is corn like, maybe some diacetyl. Flavor is lacking, there is some toasted biscuit notes but that’s about it. It was basically an attempt at bud light that I guess you could say went well. There is not enough rye in it.

Meh, I like rye beers, but this one didn’t seem to have much rye in it at all, if any. Poured a crystal clear dark golden color with a nice frothy white head. Not much in the aroma, a little spice, but that seemed to come from the hops, not the rye. Light flavor, not much malt, hops or rye. Very light mouthfeel. Overall an ok session beer, but if your gonna call it a rye beer, make sure you can tell that there is rye in there.
