look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: A hazy, yellow-amber beer with very thin head (though I think that was due to the server). The lace was minimal due to the lack of any foam.

Smell: A light aroma of grains, mild lemon, and spring meadows.

Mouthfeel: Very smooth and medium bodied. I was surprised at just how easy this beer went down.

Taste: There was a very nice lemon flavor that wasn't typical of those that I have noticed in other beers, such as wheats. It was a grassy, lemon-like flavor (go figure) that was mellow and by no means overpowering. The aftertaste is when the rye really showed itself. It had a nice, chewy grain quality that I loved. It reminded me of the flavor of Rogue's Buckwheat Ale.

A very nice beer that is very appropriate for the season.
