Served in a shaker pint glass at the brewpub.

Finishing off my day in the Big City with my second visit to Atlas to try out their new brew. It pours a deep hazy sienna topped by a finger of light-ish tan foam. The nose comprises rye bread, light sourdough, light leek, and very light toffee. The taste holds notes of light leather, rye spice, light coffee, light roasted malts, light rubber, and mild greens. The body is a light medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a fairly dry finish. Overall, this is probably my least favorite Atlas brew thus far. It seems riddled with slightly off flavors, but, luckily, they're somewhat canceled-out by more pleasant ones. Still, full enjoyment is decidedly difficult here...
