For our 11th experiment, we decide to breath some excitement into this popular style, by adding Sencha tea. Sencha tea is green tea with a unique pine-like flavour that perfectly complements the earthy notes of the rye, and the floral, citrus aroma of the New World hops.
Sencha also changes the bitterness profile, making this a unique IPA. But that's not all the tea does: If you observe closely, you may notice a slight green tint on the foam!

Another experiment from MishMash. Sencha Rye IPA with ordinary yeast and the same beer fermented with Brett yeast. Drinking them side by side. Color: Both lightly hazy amber, off-white head. Aroma: Ordinary yeast: Hoppy and malty at the same time, subtle caramel and citrus fruit. Brett yeast: Brett funk dominates. Taste: Ordinary yeast: Clearly present green tea, malty base, caramel notes, pine hints, subtle citrus fruit. Medium body, below average carbonation. Bittery tea-like finish. Moderate sweet, light to moderate bitterness. Brett yeast: Also clearly present green tea, this time fighting with the funky Brett for the win. Some citrus fruit and caramel. A little less tea-like finish. Both likeable in their own way. Although I am a Brett lover, this time I don't have preference for the Brett edition. Brett is taking away some of the fruity fresness of the ordinary edition.
Final verdict: Ordinary yeast 7 7.5 7 6 7 = 7.0 Brett yeast 7 7.5 7 6 7 = 7.0
