Rustbucket, our trademark Rye Ale, now has a big brother, Black Bucket. This Black Rye IPA balances rye and roasted malts with fresh hop aromas and flavours. At 6.5% ABV Blackie is a little bigger in strength than his lighter sibling but we think he is every bit as drinkable.

440ml can from Monster and Beer, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a clear dark brown colour with a mostly lasting bubbly off white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light smoky, grassy hops. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter, with a dry, roasty, earthy, leather, wet grassy hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. One of the best Black IPA’s I’ve had in a while. It had some body and was not over-carbonated.

1 July 2020. At Dok Brewing Company. Cheers to the Teamleader colleagues! Pours hazy dark brown-black with a stable, small, frothy, tan head. Aroma of pink grapefruit, red apple, walnut, caramel, pine, biscuit, candied orange, brown bread. Taste has sweet orange peel, nuts & caramel, bitter herbs & toast with an edge of coffee. Piney hoppy finish, herbal, a bit spicy & rye-like, touch of warming vodka. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. BIPA with a twist, nice.
