Flavor Profile & Beer Style
The Rye IPA is a hop-forward IPA with added complexity from rye malt. Tangy, slightly spicy rye notes create a dry backbone that enhances hop bitterness and aroma rather than competing with it.
A blend of citrus-forward hop varieties delivers bright notes of grapefruit, orange, and pine, resulting in a bold yet balanced IPA with a distinctive rye-driven character.
