Pours golden with virtually no head. Aroma of honey and rye bread. Taste of honey first and then rye at the end. Medium mouthfeel. Not very good. Way too sweet. Very hot with alcohol. Drain pour.

Aug 4, 2008 22 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy light amber color with the smallest off white head. The aroma shows light fruits, spices, rye, alcohol and some caramel malt. I was definetly interested after the nose and once the liquid made it to my mouth things were still ok. Once I swallowed the first taste only bad things happened. This was a mess: I don’t know if the rye didn’t work with everything else or if I had a bad bottle.

Aug 3, 2008 22oz bottle - pours out nice dark amber with a creamy white head that seems to last. I agree with Kingpin on the aroma minus the brown sugar. Looking forward to see the brewery.

Jul 18, 2008 Golden color. Smell of yeast, lemons, spice, hops, malt, brown sugar and alcohol. Taste of yeast, lemons, spice, hops, malt, brown sugar and alcohol. I would have to agree with brewblackhole on this one. This smelled like a Belgian style beer.

Jul 13, 2008 Aroma comes through as sweet and sugary,with some apple like fruitness,this smells like its going to be a Belgian style instead of an American Barleywine. big thick sugary flavor with apple sucker overtones,don’t really get the rye anywhere, alcohol not offensive,again all very Belgian in character. . Not bad,however a bit muddled, thanks Kingpin
