Poured a light yellow with a white frothy skin head and a nice lace coating beginning to form.

Initial fragrance is of light fruits.

Flavor is loaded with a crisp fruit quality as well as vanilla and coriander. Balance is excellent which makes for a great taste.

Smooth mouthfeel, low carbonation. Crisp and refreshing.

Without a doubt a very good beer, balance and mouthfeel were almost perfect. Was discouraging to hear about the fire at the distributing facility as it will be nice to pick up some of their product in KC.

Pours a clear golden/amber color with a one inch bright white head. Great retention and some crazy lacing.

The aroma is ok. Sweet, some citrus, caramel. It's really a lot like their other brews.

The taste is where it differentiates itself from the others. It's pretty good. Some sweetness and citrus up from with some good spice. Big notes of cereal, grain, and bread on the finish. It's also slightly bitter on the finish. Although, I never would have guessed this one was brewed with rye.

Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied and lightly carbonated. It's fairly creamy as well.

Drinkability is fairly high. It's a pleasant and simple beer, and I'd drink it again.
