Pours a clear amber with a medium off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, rye, grapefruit and bread. Flavor is grapefruit, pine, caramel, rye and bread. Medium dry rye finish. Medium body, light acidity.

From the bottle. Pours a nice dark coppery orange with a nice head. Aroma is flowery, with a touch of freshly mown hay or grass. Taste is dry and a bit bitter but with a true rye flavor. Finish is a bit light and watery but overall a great example.

Another nice beer from Terrapin- pours a dark copper colour with a slightly orange hue. Head is fairly large. Aroma is sweet accented by soft floral notes. Taste is relatively dry, not overly hopped. Finishes pretty clean.

On tap at Mellow Mushroom Savannah on 5/17/08. Pours a clear amber color with thin white head. Aroma is of hops, citrus, fresh grass. Tastes of rye, citrus (hints of grapefruit and ripe orange mainly), with some spice and notes of hay or grass. Slightly bitter and watery finish. Overall, drinkable IPA.

Draught: Poured a murky orange with a thin white head. The aroma is citrus and hops. Taste was similar with hops, but very smooth balance finish.

Bottle from Whole Foods Raleigh. Pours an amber color with a small head. Sweet floral hop aroma. Rye and hops combine in the taste to make a bitter but pleasant experience, followed by a sweet finish. This one I could session all day!

Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007. A dark golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet and very hoppy combined with lighter notes of grass and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of rye malt and lots of grassy hoppy notes as well as light notes of grapefruit.
