Courtesy of Brian, cheers mate! 12 oz bottle, best before 16 March 2021, 2020 vintage. 16 IBUs, limited release with maple syrup and aged in Templeton rye barrels. Mid-brown pour with a decent head considering the ABV. Of course this fades, but it...
Plain and simply? It's ugly. The classic, muddy brown dirty dishwater Dubbel. I mean, it does generate some head, and for a beer of this ABV that's no mean feat, so a little credit where credit is due, but that color ... Botanicals and whisk(e)y...
12 oz can Love the packing , the powder blue is cool looking. Not a fan of rye beers in generally, and anyone that says the rye in this is muted is, I think, mistaken. Silly, wispy head that dies to leave massive bubbles. Deep orange body. Hazed....
Mosaic - Side Project 19. As far as beer styles go, American Reds and Rye beers are two of my least favorite ones, BUT I will say that a marriage between the two does sound like a good idea, or a least a combination that might work. Mosaic includes...
Bottle has black wax which is VERY thick. Quite a pain to open. As Ranger Creek mentions on its web site, it (the wax) does stink a bit! Bottled conditioned, the beer is dated 4.9.12. Oatmeal Pale Ale with Rye added and then oak-aged for a month?...
More thanks go out to @lnashsig. 2012 vintage, bottle number 20081, Batch 2012-2, Best By: 02-2014. 33% ale, 67% ale aged in rye whiskey barrels. Frankly, I'm not a big fan of either rye or whiskey barrel-aged beer, so things don't look good from...
Pour is a well carbonated, light bronze affair with a slightly disappointingly modest head, little retention or lace. Color is a drab, Dubbel-like brown. The beer is not much to look at. Nose offers quite a lot of acid, apple notes - a bit worrying...
Growler from Growlers in Hilton Head, SC, USA. Aroma is very fragrant and floral as soonas the growler is popped. A slightly hazed, tremendous golden color with an nice head initially. Bone white with a little lace. The aroma is slightly rye based,...
I am assuming that this is a re-birth of the Crank Tank Rye'd Ale from the fall of 2010. I've got to be honest right off the bat here, I generally do NOT like rye beers. The harsh, bitter, peppery notes that the spice delivers is usually not to my...
12 oz bottle, over 12 months old, with the usual New Glarus, Unplugged presentation with red foil on the neck, plus the neck label. Deep, dark pour, surprisingly dark in fact with real mahogany look to the beer. Tremendous smoke on the nose, really...
Chill hazed, clouded brown body with a very disappointing head. Some spotty film, but no retention or lace to speak of. Drab and ugly looking. Nose offers typical peppery, medicinal notes with a strange, additional blue cheese note. Smells a bit...
12 oz single, thanks to Kevin for the chance to try this. Rye beers (of any description) are not really my thing so I approach this with a degree of trepidation. The beer pours as a totally clear, golden straw color with a small, white head....
Had this a few times in the last few weeks, this review is for the final 22oz bottle that I will drink. Pour is a rich looking, clear orange with some good carbonation and head and lace to match. The lace is pretty sticky. Looks solid in the glass...
750 mL bottle from Arbor Place Beverage, Douglasville, GA, USA. I approach this with some trepidation since I am not the biggest fan of rye beer in general. Pour is a very good looking, chocolate brown body with a solid, dense, well formed head...
Two draft pours at The Brick Store, Decatur, Atlanta, GA, USA. Delighted to come across this; an unexpected and happy surprise. Beer forms a not especially attractive, Dubbel brown body but is topped with a wispy, white head that is sustained well...
12 oz bottle. Hazy orange body sits underneath a white, bubbly head that forms quickly on top. A thin film is left on the beer as the pour settles. No lace in the Terrapin snifter. Nose and tastes are dominated by citrus hops. The rye takes a back...
$7.99 form Green's on Buford, Atlanta, GA, USA. 22oz bomber. Pour is impressive with a high, towering tan head and nice ruby red, highlighted black/brown body. Lace is fantastic; sticky, copious and thick. So far so good. Bags of great malts in the...
A dark brown, reddish hue to the brew in the Brasserie de l'Abbaye des Rocs Chalice. Small head that fades to give a spotty film. A small amount of lace. It's difficult for me to remember a beer where the tastes match the ingredients so well. Rye...
22oz bomber from Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA - $4.99 (I think). Delighted to have the opportunity to help a good cause, not so much bothered what the beer is like. Amber body - good clarity; thin looking with a lack of significant head and...
On tap as part of the $5.95 sampler at Wild Wing Cafe, Marietta, GA, USA. Pour is a very clear, urine yellow with good clarity and a small white head. Lots of carbonation. Nose and tastes have some rye character but it is VERY weak - very muted....
Thanks go out to Brian700 for the trade. Fantastic looking pour with a massive rocky head that has great retention. Copper red body with a lot of clarity. Lovely sticky lacing left behind. Looks? It's a 5! Big hops, but it's really mellow - not...
Thanks to Beerinator as part of XBIF 39. 22oz Bomber. Excellent mahogany red color with a super head and plenty of lacing. A real nice looker. Aroma is sweet hops. It's all here. Plenty of rye character from start to finish and the hops are...
OK, but not much more than average for me. Dark, Porter like pour that promises a rich experience but comes up a little short. Good size tan head with some nice lacing. Mouthfeel lacked body. Some hop bitterness comes through but it sits against...
Super. Much less Rye in the taste than others that use it, in fact this really sits in my own category of classic English bitters. Two separate reviews in one here. First the pour without the yeast; lovely, quite lively carbonated, golden pour....
