Dec 25, 2008 pours amber with tan head.
Aroma is malty, rye and caramel with light floral hops. Yeasty nose - vegetable, grassy -.
Taste is similar to aroma. Malty light roasted and caramel. Rye with light hoppy finish, giving the beer a nice velvety mouthfeel.. Everything comes together with the malts and hops for a well balanced beer.

Nov 28, 2008 Pour is a dark brown with a very large tan head. Aroma is of roasted nuts and obvious rye malt. Flavor is again mostly the rye but I also get a molasses and some dark fruit sweetness. A damn expensive beer for what it is but i was glad to get it on sale to give it a try.

Nov 19, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. First of their "Big Mo" series I’ve tried. Nothing overwhelming here, but some pleasant warming awesomeness comes along with it. The rye does add a little spice kick to the sweetness.
