This Black Rye IPA brings that 80’s bass of a Chicago warehouse right into your glass. As the third release in our House Music Series, this brew doesn’t just pour — it drops. With Citra, Motueka, and Chinook hops, expect a bold rhythm of pine, citrus, and a sly hint of roasty spice from that rye and dark malts. This is a Black IPA that knows what it’s about: roasty beats, subtle sweat, a groove so deep, you’ll swear you’re tasting synth lines. It’s complex, it’s moody and uplifting at the same time, it doesn’t care if you’re ready — it’s here to make a statement. So grab a glass, turn down the lights, and let Four to the Floor do the talking. It’s best enjoyed with some bass-heavy and piano-driven tunes!

Röstiger, weich hopfiger Start. Cremig, weiche schokoladige Bitterkeit, die im Mittelteil weiter zunimmt. Würzig röstig, Kaffee, zunehmend trocken. Intensiver, cremig malziger und gleichzeitig bitter-hopfiger Abgang. Gut! 9/11/11/11/9/11
