This beer has nice dark color body with a little bit of white head that lays down to a quickly to a thin lace. The smell is of faint citrus and some hops. The taste is a little sweet, but peppery on the finish. Some rye notes come through. The mouth feel is good and overall is a good beer.

off white head that rose to about two fingers high and left a thick coating of lacing all around the glass. a rich thick lacing ensued throughout the glass.
aroma is thick hoppy goodness, a rich aroma with a hint of spice comes through on the nose right away. really nice blended notes of pine resin, warm malts, a nice touch of buttery middle and a touch of rye. really well done and this carries over to the flavor perfectly. smooth, effortless feel on this one delivers a light hoppy goodness with hints f spiced rye and buttery malts. nice clean finish with a light dryness

A - Pale yellow, pretty translucent. Nice big bright white head that laces like a menace.
S - Yeast, hops, faint citrus.
T - Follows the nose. With a very nice, bread aftertaste.
M - Wel-carbonated. Pretty dry.
D - Very drinkable and sessionable. Six of these could probably be consumed in under two hours. That can't be said for many beers. Good. Not great. Don't know whether I'd get it again.

Thanks goes out to TheManiacalOne for this beer.
Pours a nice clean/clear golden yellow color, nice carbonation, nice little fizzy white head, with some minimal sticky lacing left behind. The nose is malty, sweet, slight spice note. The taste is slightly sweet, malty, some rye notes, alittle peppery. Medium Body, nice dry/bitter finish. A tasty brew.

Thanks to connecticutpoet for sending me this one!
A: Pours a clear orange color with a one finger, extremely white head. Quick dissipation to a small layer of foam on top. Chunky lacing down the sides.
S: A little bit of spice and rye to go with a little bit of hops, the nose seems kind of closed for me.
T: Just not much going on for me. A little bit of caramel, some floral hops, and a hint of spice.
M: Medium bodied, smooth and crisp, with a dry finish.
O: The first beer from Wachusett I have not enjoyed. There wasn't a bad quality to this beer, but I just didn't get anything. The nose was weak and the flavor profile seemed to be lacking.
