A base of Munich malt is joined by a healthy addition of flaked rye and German CaraRye malts. This hefty body helps support the significant hop character, as well as providing plenty of malty caramelly rye sweetness. At 4.5% ABV, the hop aroma is intense, deriving from kettle additions of French Barbe Rouge, American Simcoe® and CTZ hops. A further dry hop of CTZ drives powerful gassy diesel terpenes, rich forest floor pine, and the red berry notes of the French hops.
