    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

    Sampled on 8/26/2012. This IPA pours a light orange gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head with good retention and nice lacing. The aroma is fruity and sweet, with some orange and a touch of spiciness. A medium bodied IPA. The malts are fruity and sweet. There is some orange and orange peel as well as a touch of rye spiciness. The hops are citrusy and slightly spicy. Decent carbonation. A decent balance between hops and malts, there is some lingering hops at the finish. Very drinkable. Decent session ale. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

    This beer pours a dark orange color with a thin white head that disappears quickly. The aroma is of pine and wheat. The mouthfeel is crisp and clean with a smooth finish. The flavor is a clean piny note with a bitter orange Peel finish. Overall a good ipa sampling from saranac.

    Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

    Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a pint glass. There is no freshness date on the bottle but it did come in the new 2009 winter pack so I have a good idea of how fresh it is. Appearance: It has a light amber body with very good clarity. The head is just off white in color, tall and foamy. It has a good two finger thickness which hangs on well and makes lots of nice lace patters on the glass. Smell: The aroma has a mellow hint of dark rye bread and very mild hops. Taste/Palate: The flavor has a light bready malt base with mild clover honey like sweetness that lets the flavor of the rye come through. Spicy and dry leafy hop flavor comes in close to and into the finish which also has a balanced hop bitterness lingering for a while. Its body has a good medium feel with just enough soft carbonation. Notes: The Saranac Rye IPA has very good balance of flavors but I think hop heads will be looking for a little more hop flavor. Still, I feel that this is a wonderful beer and a very drinkable Rye IPA.
