Warborn
Weyerbacher Brewing Co.

Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a copper color with a 1 inch head. Smell is of citrus, malts, rye. Taste is rye, grapefruit, light malts, a mild bitterness. Feels medium/full bodied in the mouth and overall, nothing special, but it's a pretty good beer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

$ 4.03 (Including tax)/16 oz can ($ 0.252/oz) from Weyerbacher, Easton, PA. Reviewed 4/22/19.
Undated can. Stored at 42 degrees and served at 42 degrees in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter.
Appearance – 4.25.
Body – Gold, opaque. Fine particles are suspended.
Head – Large (Maximum five cm, aggressive center pour), medium density, neutral beige, average duration, diminishing to a six to ten mm scalloped ring with a thick, partial, cap. Head retraction leaves a ring of torn curtain lacing.
Lacing – good. Wide bands of tiny to small bubbles, connected by multiple thin columns. See also above.
First pour – Gold, clear.
Aroma – 4 – Floral hops, rye, and some oak.
Flavor – 4.25 – Dank and earthy with rye spiciness and oak. Neither pine nor vanilla. No alcohol (5 % ABV), no diacetyl, no dimethylsulfide.
Palate – 3 – Medium, creamy, soft carbonation.
Impression and interpretation – 4 – Very drinkable and very rye-forward.

Cloudy but translucent amber with a rocky tan head. Good retention and tons of streaky, gloppy lacing.

Smells malty, a bit old; caramel, toffee, toast, honey, a hint of pink grapefruit, peppery rye.

Tastes better than it smells. Toast with honey, toffee, pink grapefruit flesh, bitter grapefruit peel, black peppery rye, a hint of vanilla and oak tannins. Super smooth and not too sweet even with its apparent age.

Creamy mouthfeel, medium, well carbonated, slick but ends clean.

A nice rye pale ale! I wish I could try this fresher. A great beverage dedicated to one of my favorite bands.
