Fruity on the nose, but doesn’t carry through to the palate. Fairly long cinnamon red hot finish. Not my favorite rye based on this taste. Might make a good cocktail. Tried another pour of this, and an old fashioned as well. Still not my thing. Has a lot of positive reviews, but not a match for my palate I guess. Shame, love their beer. Busted Knuckle and Fool’s Russian are fantastic!
