| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 5, 2008 This poured copper in color with a thin white head that almost dissipated away. The nose was filled with citrus, rye, herbs and caramel. In the mouth it was quite dry and showed off the rye here more than in the nose. A plesant beer but lacking some depth...the depth and concentration that was apparent in the Rye Squarred which I definitely prefer. BustedFlat (552), Edina, Minnesota, USA

Rye and pine hops on the nose. Rye is definitely present combines with some grapefruit and slight hoppy bitterness.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 30, 2008 Poured a crystal clear amber color with a tall creamy tan head. There was a light amount of carb bubbles in the glass. This beer looked great in the glass. Very inviting to drink. There was a big grapefruit aroma. There was a clean crisp citrus flavor initially that rolled into a mild crisp bitterness with a very slight dry finish. The head left nice lacing throughout the glass. This was a very easy drinking enjoyable beer. riversideAK (2670), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 30, 2008 Rye malts, light citrus, and grass in the aroma. Pours an orange tone with a thin head and some lacing. Spicy, grainy, and sweet rye malt flavors followed by light citrus and grassy hops. Decent carbonation, lighter body, some rye sweetness in the finish. This kind of bores me, but it could be worse. LinusStick (1831), Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 27, 2008 A decent rye APA but not as good as I was hoping. Aroma was very nice. Sweet rye malt with some grassy and earthy hops. Pour was beautiful. Deep dark red with a nice 2 finger of white head. Taste was a bit disappointing. Watery and thin with a lot of sweet rye and sugar. The hops and malt seem like they are fighting each other. Decent carbonation. I love rye pale ales...this was just too thin. daknole (2882), Plantation, Florida, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 20, 2008 Pours from a a 12oz bottle a nice copper/straw color with a small white head. Aroma is a nice hoppy, citrus and floral. Nice tasting pale ale that picks up the citrus and floral scents to make this a very drinkable beer. Skinnyviking (4141), Copenhagen, Denmark
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 3, 2008 Bottle. No head. Hazy amber body. Sweet floran aroma with notes of oranges. Fruity floral flavor with low carbonation and a short sweet aftertaste. Nice hops bitterness and a good balance between sweet and bitter flavors.
