Commercial Description:
Cane and Ebel is one of a series of special limited-run beers in styles that are more extreme or unusual. This unique red rye beer is full of hop flavor and aroma. We add 35 pounds of Thai palm sugar to each batch. The sugar does not add much sweetness to the beer, but rather a fruity and vanilla-like flavor. A new hop variety called Summit is really showcased here. This 18%AA hop is also very aromatic which gives a pungent citrus aroma. Then we heavily dry hopped the beer with Simcoe.

This is good stuff, gotta drive for some more i think. Similar to red’s rye. Drink this one a bit warmer as it really comes into it’s own. Plenty of hops here and the rye lends itself nicely to the finish as well. where can i get some of these summit hops?

On tap at Rattle ’n’ Hum, NYC. Clean cereal and hop taste. IPA with some nice bready dimension. A little sourness in the finish. Nice rye flavour.

Brewfest NY 08. Man i wish i was able to write down notes at the fest, but it was pouring rain and I had an umbrella in one hand, and my drinking glass in the other. I remember this being pretty decent though. Obviously need to try it again.

Sampled at the NY Brewfest on 9/12. Not able to give a very accurate rating due to the sheer number of brews sampled.

Pours a medium brown. The nose is very floral with a hint of citrus. Comes across the palate with a little too much carbonation. Finishes extremely hoppy.
