Bottle courtesy of and thanks to Dchmela! My first beer from the brewery. It decanted a deep transparent amber and poured a beige two finger cap. Nice spiderweb lace was left behind. The aroma was a mix of spicy hops and rye, with toasty, caramel goodness. The flavour profile was spicier than I expceted. Quite bold with floral and rye notes and a good dose of bittering hops, leading into semi-sweet caramel malts and a finish of wood. Quite bitter and hoppy towards the finish, with an aftertaste of spicy hops and sweet cotton candy. Very tasty. I would have pegged this as an APA. Thanks Dave!

Jul 13, 2008 Pours an amber color with a nice big mostly white head. Good lacing. Aroma was more malt than hops. Flavor was malty and had some decent hops. An easy beer to drink and pretty enjoyable, just not a world class IPA.
