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.

1/2 a shared 12oz. bottle. Pours a cloudy deep orangish brown with minimal head. Nose is sweet caramel and malts with some fresh bread accents. Taste is dark roasted notes of caramel and malt. Somewhat smooth and slightly sweet. Just a hint of rye flavor as well. Moderately dry finish and decent aftertaste. Nice Changeup!

(bottle) listing 6.6% ABV; hazy orange/reddish colour with small tan head; heavy hops, resin aroma; taste much lighter than aroma - light grain and hops

Pours a muddy copper with a fluffy head. Big rye and citrus aroma. Nice dryness and bitterness at the beginning that yields to a sweet body that is nicely balanced. Lingering bitterness at the end but not overpowering. Great beer!

Nice reddish pour with a nice tan head. Strong aroma of grapefruit and hops. Very tasty but finish has too much bite and is a bit too bitter for my liking. Overall a great offering. I would love to try this one again

12 oz bottle served in a tulip glass. Poured a rusty, dull copper with a thick, fluffy white head that left a very nice lacing. Nose is hops, perfume, malts, and floral tones. Taste is hop bitter, caramel, and perfume with a lingering floral bitter. This is an unusual brew, yet very tasty, but it’s not something that I would drink frequently.

Pours out a nice reddish light copper color with a moderate fluffy off white, lasting head. Nice aroma of citrus and pine hops, rye bread and some other earthy notes. Taste is complex and very well balanced, hops with some sweet notes, rye malts and a slightly dry, bitter finish. I like it.
