4.2/5
AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
12 ounce bottle, best before 6/9/11. Pours slightly hazy copper-red color with a dense 2 finger light caramel colored head with amazing retention that reduces to a fairly thick lacing cap. Thick sticky lacing coats the entire glass as you drink. Aromas of rye, caramel, toffee, bread, citrus, and a bit of molasses. Some pretty appealing aromas here, a nice balance. Taste of rye, toast, caramel, citrus, and spices. A prominent bitterness shows up after the finish and lingers for a while with rye and spicy flavors. No alcohol was noticed in the taste, but there is a warming after the finish. Medium carbonation and body. Very smooth drinking as well. Overall this is a great Rye ale, and is very enjoyable stuff.
Tasty beer and my first one from Two Brothers. I will be checking out some more offerings from them soon.
