Re-Introducing Jester King Wytchmaker Rye IPA

After a nine-year hiatus, we’ve brought back “Wytchmaker Rye IPA”. Originally brewed in September of 2010, Wytchmaker Rye IPA is an American-Style Rye IPA brewed with 15% malted rye in the grist. For its reincarnation, we’ve modernized the hop bill with five pounds per barrel Citra, Simcoe, and El Dorado Cryo. Mashed with TexMalt San Jacinto Heritage Malt, Weyermann malted rye, and a touch of oats. Fermented with the “Juice” strain from Imperial Yeast. Expect vibrant notes of grapefruit mimosa, Navy Grog, and rye whisky paloma. 7.1% abv.

Speaking of O.G., here's what we wrote on the back of the bottle when we first released this beer in 2010:

The culprit behind the Salem Witch Trials was not the demonic possession (which would have been kind of cool), but ergot infected rye. The rye malt and aromatic hops in this beer aren't likely to transform you into a witch, but maybe they'll inspire you to think about your own transformation - perhaps into an individual; a free thinker; someone who speaks their mind and follows their dreams. Personally, we'd go with transforming into an army of flying viking bears, but what do we know?
