On draft at the brewery, Princeton location. Poured a sarkish murky brown with a nice head. Licorice came through strong in both the aroma and taste.

This stuff is liquid licorice. Pours an anise color with a significant white head. Taste of licorice and anise on the tongue with other hints of sweet malt. Favorite beer of the day.

Pours a murky brown color with a caramel colored head. Has an aroma of coffee. Roasty caramel taste with lots of licorice. Decent but not a 99.

Pours dark brown with tan hea. Aroma is caramel, vanilla, rye and woodyness. Taste is sweet with a smewhat creamy mouthfeel.

Draft @ princeton triumph. Dark brown pour with a little tan head. Smells like I’m sniffing rye bread, flavor follows. Initially I wasn’t sure what to think, but its a great rye beer, what i put any other up to.

Draft. Pours a brune body with an off white head. Rye seeds, malt, and some spicy fruit. Light bitter earth finish and a light spiced warming. This was nice.

GABF 2007. This smelled and tasted of straight up caraway seed, like it was concentrated and liquified. It’s not bad, but I’d like some more balance of flavors (like some more characteristic maltiness, although there is some chocolate lurking underneath). Don’t really know what to make of this.

A very nice tasting beer. It has a aroma and flavor of a rustic black rye bread. Sampled it at the Philadelphia location on 2/21/2008
