Bought is a 12 oz can in Lubbock Texas at HEB, poured into a pint glass back home in Oklahoma.

Very pretty almost red colored liquid with a white head aroma is slightly sour as is the flavor.

This one doesn't quite work for me. The sour notes are just too much, just out of balance and doesn't have enough of the rye spiciness that I would be otherwise expecting.

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a lightly hazed brownish, dark amber color with a one finger head of white foam. The head has a great level of retention, fading slowly over time and leaving tons of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma of the brew is rather strong of a molasses and rye aroma mixed with lots of caramel and some apple and oak. Along with these smells comes a touch of nut and a little bit of toast.
Taste – The taste begins with a malty rye bread flavor mixed with sweeter flavors of apple cider and molasses. Other flavors of a light caramel and a touch of a sour apple taste are there as well, adding a nice hint of tartness. As the taste moves onto the end, there is an increase in the rye and bread, leaving one with a lightly soured, but rather approachable taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is medium in thickness and creaminess with a higher carbonation level. Overall, the feel was pretty nice and creates an easy sipper.
Overall – A rather decent and lightly soured rye ale with a easy drinking nature.
