Nice grapefruit-citrus aroma. Touch of bread and spice.
Dark amber, clear, lots of bubbles of various sizes rising to a 1/3 inch light tan head. The head becomes a thick bubbly cap in only a few minutes. Nice looking, but would be even better with more of a head (and my pour started somewhat gentle, but when I saw the head was not rising, it turned more vigorous).
Flavor is quite varied and interesting (in a good way). The initial citrus is leading, which transitions fairly quickly to a spicy and somewhat musty bready flavor. The rye adds a nice spiciness and solid backing to the citrus flavor from the hops. The finish brings in a good level of bitterness, with the aftertaste being a lingering mildly bitter rye bread. All around excellent and varied flavor.
The beer has a moderate body, perhaps just on the thin side of moderate, which is commendable given the ABV.
Overall, another very good beer to accompany a meal. This is the best of the Lakeville beers I have had so far; good enough to grab at any time. Lakeville is clearly focusing their beers on their brewery-restaurant business model, and it shows with well-done beers to enjoy with a meal or with friends at the pub.
