Commercial Description:
Pours a spectacular crimson red with a creamy tan head. Brewed with four varieties of Belgian caramel malts imparting a sweet richness. Reds Rye is impressively balanced with its hop bitterness and floral bouquet achieved from the dry hop. In the finish, the generous amount of malted rye used accentuates a spicy crisp finish.

Nice brown color. Smell mostly of hops. Nice dry hopped flavor. Has one heck of a bite in the end.

On tap at The Beer Engine this week. Poured a medium ruddy amber into pint with no head but off white ring. No carbonation. Resinous flower bomb hop aroma and flavor is to match, almost like chewing on gerianium leaves. Smooth mouthfeel and very refreshing not at all what I was expecting. Love this stuff.

Red pour with a white head. Aroma is dominated by hops and some darker caramel malts. Flavor is really well balanced between the malt and hops. Lots of hops flavor with a moderately bitter finish.

Hazed, reddish amber appearance with a large beige head and very good lacing. Early on, the aroma is grainy, moderately sweet malts, but wait a whiff and you run into flowery and resinous hops. Flavors also bounce back and forth, with the earthy rye in sync with the spicy, citrusy hops. Spicy hops dominate the lingering finish as well. Just wish I had easy access to this brewer in general and this beer specifically.

Pours a cloudy, dark amber with a thin, off-white head. Piney hops and sweet malts in the aroma. Tastes of piney and citrus hops, caramel, toast, cereal, sweet malts, with a bit of earthiness and hop bitterness in the finish. A rather unique brew and was definetely a treat for me.

I’ve been gravitating to the RyePAs lately, and this is just another one, I’ve drank a lot of this beer recently, and for my money it’s one of the better values out there.

Pours a dark amber. Piney resin and hops on the nose. Flavor of pinecone and hops. This beer is INCREDIBLE! The hops and rye create one of the most pleasanlty bitter beers I have ever had. A new favorite!
