Our Rye IPA is a speciality hybrid beer combining a full flavoured American style IPA with the spicy characteristics of a traditional Rye Ale. A burnished gold / red-gold colour, the aromas showcase classic North American hop flavour – grapefruit and citrusy fruit flavour with a touch of pine. Distinct spicy rye character is evident in the first sip, and this combines with the hop fruit flavour in the beer. The mouth-feel gives a medium body lusciousness, which supports the spice of the malted rye in the beer. A very well balanced, spice, malt sweetness, and fruit body, all integrate to deliver a range of complex full flavours.
