You'll enjoy the rich, full body and ample rye flavor in this smooth amber ale. Two types of rye are combined with English Pale Ale malt and dark crystal malt give this deep copper ale a pleasant malty flavor. Modest additions of Styrian Golding and Crystal hops complement the flavor of the Rye and balance the sweetness of the malts.

"From a growler (thanks Dansting). Poured clear brown with a small head. Aroma is malty and light. Flavor is earthy for lack of a better term. I agree with Drew that it's pretty thin in the mouth. An ok beer, but definitely not one of Free State's best."

"Smelled of earthy/grassy hoppiness and malt and rye. Thin mouthfeel, for a rye beer. Nice bitter and spicy flavor, but it just fell thin. Nice lacing down the glass, this could be quite good on cask."
