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.

Cask: hand-pulled pint on 24th Oct 2014 in the lovely Abbotsford, Edinburgh. Deep reddy brown, clear with a full lasting head. Aroma was both fruity and dry malty molasses. The taste was like the nose: fruity, malty and fairly dry in nature, I also found some rye bread type flavours and a mild hop bitterness in the finish. Decent.
