GABF 2005: Not too many notes about this one...hazed golden hue and very good lacing...fruity and a bit hoppy on the nose with some rye character...taste was very average at best, hoppy and bready, no depth...okay, drinkable. (Holy cow, willblake’s numbers are the same as mine, guess I was spot on about the brew)

09.29.05 GABF Coudy golden, big sticky head. Odd aromas of bananas, hefe, and grass. There must be a bunch of wheat in this rye brew. Yeasty and doughy. I’d like it to be much drier and have a stronger rye presence.

GABF 2005. Cloudy, toasted straw color with a fading, slightly oily, sudsy off-white head. Good spicy rye and hop notes and an odd phenolic clove and electrical fire quality in the aroma and flavor. Medium tart acidity and medium bitterness. So-so as far as rye beers go.
