Bottle. Light hazy color. Light malty honey nose. Some spices with honey hints. Light malt finish. Still looking for the Rye. Light and thirst quenching Ish.

Bottle. Beer of the month club. Hazy amber-golden, little white film. Lemon, honey, grass aroma, sweet, strong honey, malty taste. Medium body, lively carbonation, honey aftertaste. Enjoyable.

DSG (3017) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - MAY 15, 2012
Bottle. Beer of the month club. Clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of malt, fruits, honey and a bit of spiciness. Sweetish grainy flavor with honey, rye and some fruitiness and a dry finish with a bit of cardboard. Light to medium-bodied. Not so fun.

dresden (269) - Saskatchewan, CANADA - MAY 12, 2012
Clear golden with a decent white head. Sweet aroma of honey and a little pine. Sweet honey, with a little toasted grain and pine taste. This isn't a bad beer, it's not very memorable but it's not bad.

Atom (689) - Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - APR 24, 2012
12oz bottle pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of malt, wheat, and slight fruit. Taste has a stinging sweet and tartness followed by malts and grain. Not horrible but I wouldn’t most definitely turn this down if offered again.

Ouch! Beautiful bottle, but I’m not feeling it. Light beer, slightly cloudy, decent lacing and friendship. Go Heels!

pintbypint (1611) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - APR 20, 2012
650ml brown bottle. A golden clear pour. Head is white, decent retention, creamy-ish edges, streaky lacing sticking to the glass. Nose is moderately sweet with honey and grain. Taste has a quick honey sweetness, middle is grainy with bread crust. Dry finish. Aftertaste is light, some bread and grain. Medium bodied with a bit of a creamy smooth mouthfeel. Pretty mellow overall, not getting rye anywhere. Easy to drink but unfortunately not very interesting.

reebtogi (2197) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - APR 20, 2012
650ml bomber pours a pale golden with a finger of white head that settles to a thin spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma is mild honey and cereal grains and faint grassy hops. Taste is light honey and malty sweetness with some tart fruit and mild grassy hop bitterness. Light body and mild carbonation and a dry finish. Easy drinking brew with little substance to it.

BiddleBrau (659) - Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 11, 2012
Beer of the month selection. Pours mostly clear golden with thin head. Some honey sweetness in the nose. A bit of a sharp bite from the rye, tastes a bit dirty as well. Flavor is very mixed, a bit oily and horsey. I really don’t look forward to the next sip with this one.

tronraner (2458) - Walland, Tennessee, USA - MAR 29, 2012
12 oz bottle. Pours light gold with quick white head. The aroma is cheap honey, corn, a slight breadiness, and a dirty/dusty note. The flavor is very boring. General grain, maybe a touch of unspecific honey sweetness. Very watery finish with a slight metallic acidity to it. I’m not sure I understand this beer.

thegreenrooster (2532) - St.louis, Missouri, USA - MAR 28, 2012
Pour is a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is nothing maybe a little on the sweet side but that’s it. Flavor is almost nothing as well. Maybe some wheat but this is almost tasteless. Deffinatly no rye or honey can be detected. This is awfully boring.
