FIRST tRYE - Rye India Pale Lager - 51% Rye Malts
This collaboration brew combines the expertise of two craft brewers. The knowledge of lager style fermentation from Welde and the experience of brewing with rye as a brewing malt from Jopen. This resulted in a RIPL (Rye India Pale Lager) with 51% rye malt. Spice flavors from the rye malt combined with intense aromas from Chinook, Eureka and Calypso hops of tangerine, citrus fruit and pine give this beer an intense taste experience - still having the drinkability of a lager.

From tap at Bierfestival Groningen 2017. Aroma is fruity hops, soft spicy rye malt, bready and mild spicy notes with some fruits. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and moderate bitter. Body is medium. Easy beer with a nice rye presence.

Very hazy gold beer, good cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has good fine carbonation. Rubbery skunky nose. Smooth malts, soft creamy sweetness. Bitterish skunk and some mild rubber carries over from the nose. Smooth pine and light hop spice. Spicy orange and orange peel. Marmalade. The rubber starts to grate. Light finish.
