Feb 9, 2008 On tap at the Purple Onion, Saluda NC.
Nice draught...not too spectacular in the aroma department (but not bad either). Great with a Mediterranean platter (baba ghanouj, hummous, tabouleh, olives...). The wee bit o’ rye does clean the palate and leave you thirsting for more. I’m getting good at this identifying beer thing -- I had a hunch that it was dry-hopped (VERY floral on the tongue), and sure enough, it is!

does not count  Feb 6, 2008 First Rye Beer. Nice aroma. Very little head retention. Slighty sweet start with a bitter dry finish. Not bad, will have again in the future. Found at Wal-Mart in Pell City, AL. Very surprised to find a "craft" beer. No other ale to be found...anywhere.

Jan 31, 2008 on tap @ mellowmushroom orlando. nice golden color, very little head. slight fruit, maybe apricot aroma. went great with the pizza i had. not too bitter either. nice underlining of fruit in the flavor to match the slight bitterness.

Jan 29, 2008 Bottle. Pours golden orange with a small white head. Noticable carbonation. Smells very strong of rye malt with a background of hops. Taste initially starts with a flood of floral hops which then turns to all rye, and rather dry in the mouth. A nice pale ale especially considering it uses a very underused grain in brewing.

Jan 23, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazy copper color with a decent sized white head. Aroma is grapefruit, light orange, caramel. Flavor is caramel, floral hops, orange, grapefruit. Palate is medium bodied, medium carbonation, finishes bitter. So-so.

Jan 14, 2008 This is a very pleasant beer which put me in mind of DFH 60 Minute--a lot of the same hop character and similar malt-to-hops balance. Though it was a bit lighter than that. Very nice, and rather than "extreme" (as I see in the Commercial Description), I would tag it "subtle" and charming.
