A Red Rye based beer, recklessly laced with American Hops during the boil and dry hopped after fermentation with more USA and NZ varieties. A real fruity character with a smooth bitterness, perfect to rock your senses to the edge.

50cl bottle at Lendav Taldrik, Tallinn. Pours clear almost Coca-Cola colured with a rather fast dissapating tan head. Malty and hoppy aroma with notes of rye bread, light citrus, caramel and some fruity and herbal notes. Medium sweet with nice flavours of hops and rye and a good bitterness in the finish. Well balanced. Refreshing and tasty!

Cask handpull at Craft Clerkenwell. Clear russet colour lasting beige head. Malty fruity. I love these red ales. Lovely balance on this beer. Good beer. Nice subtle hops on the finish.

Dark red, some floral character and rich dark malts. Great character, lots of malt complexity.

Bottle 500ml (AbM)
Deep clear amber color, small steady white head, some lace. Gooseberry and caramel in the hoppy nose. Medium-bodied. Caramel, gooseberry bush hoppyness, citrus in the flavor. Well, this is not "speciality grain" as RB says but quality amber ale.
