Subtle spice, soft sweetness, and dark fruit depth. Winter without the weight. Our light, yet flavorful rye lager is highly gulpable. Brewed using locally grown and malted rye from Sugar Creek Malting. It presents pleasant toast and spice and is complemented by the fruitiness of French Barbe Rouge hops. At 4.2%, you’ll already be thinking about the next one when you’re halfway through the first.

Draft at the source. Amber-ish body under a pillowy head. The malts in the nose are like wheat toast with a bit of honey. Taste brings up the subtle spiciness of rye malt, as described. With Goldfinger's usual sharp European hop profile. It is clichéd to say this, but this is indeed easy drinking: while still being quite hearty when it's cold.
