Commercial Description:
We Consider this an extreme version of an American Pale Ale. It has a very up front floral and citrus aroma from a late cascade addition and dry hopping with Amarillo. This beer also has a big malt background to balance the bitterness of the hops. The rye malt cleans up your palette after you swallow so the hop flavor does not stick in your mouth too long.
Now available in bottles.

12 oz bottle. Poured clear copper in color with a large frothy beige sticky head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of rye malts, with a bit of sweet floral hops. Tastes of Rye, floral hops, caramel, and a little mild citrus. Nice body and certainly and easy drinker. Pretty good.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Citrus and grapefruit aroma. Mild spiced too. Light breadish malt flavour with a light citrus fruity note on top. Slowly building bitterness into the finish.

Pretty solid. Sort of dry for my taste. Probably b/c of the rye. Flowery and a little citrussy too.

This is another excellent beer by Terrapin. Very drinkable, one of my first experiences of a rye beer. Had this in a Hotel Lounge in downtown Atlanta. I wish I could get this in Omaha.

Bottle at Chris O’s 19th April 2008 tasting. Orange gold with a rye aroma, this is a bit fizzy on the tongue and tastes of very little. Avoid.

Botella. Pours a hazy golden colour with a nice medium white head leaving a good lacing. Aroma of rye, and hops. Good mouthfeel. The flavour has a mild sweetness, good hoppiness, rye and some citrus. Nice dry lasting finish. Nice turtle brew.

On tap @ mellow mushroom, winter park. Hazy golden with a slight white head. Citrus hops up front, atop some smooth toasted malts and wonderful spicy rye. Citrus and rye, pairs well .Nice bitter finish! Better colder.

On tap at Bonnaroo. I assume this is what it was, although I thought it was simply a basic pale ale. Ah well, No real aroma. Poured a hazy golden. Flavor was mostly hoppy, a little dry...a little one dimensional, but not overpowering.
