  • The mouthfeel is dry initially going easily across the pallate. The mouthfeel is a touch watery overall but has notes of charcoal, sour grains, pepper spices and a good pop of white sugar.

  • The extra rye presents itself on the palate. Creamy and seasoned with clove, cinnamon and while also being fruity, like fig newton filling with apricot chunks.
