Rye has been a staple grain for millennia—sought after for its stubborn resilience in the field and revered for its unique flavor. Ruthless Rye IPA is brewed with rustic grains for refined flavors, combining the peppery spice of rye and the bright citrusy flavors of whole-cone hops to create a complex ale for the tumultuous transition to spring.

Bottle from Jacks Westholme Stores, Goring-on Thames, Oxon consumed at Bromyard Folk Festival, Bromyard, Herefordshire Saturday 8th September 2012 Stood watching the marvellous Silurian Morris in Bromyard Market Sq. Hazy amber with a busy sticky off-white head. Quite soft in mouth but there is a hard slight minerally edge to this. Some sweetness with a slightly sour lemony edge. Good lasting bitterness, great beer, great Morris side. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

En betydande beska som det inte är något fel på, fruktig och maltig. Tropisk frukt och blommor toner av honung. Citrus- och grapefruktbeska med uns av peppar.

tap (Dash In Feb 3, 2012) - Pours lightly hazy amber. It smells of resinous hops and rye. The flavor is moderate to strong hops bitterness with a dry, light, rye character. It’s medium bodied with a dry finish. Good IPA.

Bottle. Pretty orange-bronze color. Spicy rye nose, with citrus hop, bread. Big peppery rye flavor, grains, rye bread, with good bitter finish and nice citrus hops that work really well to enhance the rye rather than cover it up. Great rye showcase.
