Commercial Description:
This is our interpretation of the hoppiest of all beers, as it was served to the British troops in the eighteenth century. We have chosen to give this a Danish attitude with the addition of large amounts of malted rye. Together with excessive quantities of American hops this yields a complex and intensely bitter ale with a spicy bouquet and flavor. Enjoy it with spicy dishes, where the bitterness will complement the flavors. Ølfabrikken Rug IPA is, of course, unpasteurized, unfiltered and bottle conditioned like all of our beers.

Bottle. Deep amber clear body with a medium dense offwhite head. Aromas from fruit, citrus, rye malt, and yes... lots of hops :-). Sweet rye flavour and malty spices, with a little alcohol and bittherness in the finish. The balance of the malt and hops are surprisingly and very enjoyable. This was a really nice bottle of beer.

I got the last drops from an old keg, so.. Murky and almost flat, a really depressing looking beer. Very fruity nose, mango and all sorts of jungle fruits, soft maltiness, dry rye. Similar fruity flavor with soft maltiness and balanced strong bitterness. I imagine this being heavenly in it’s prime. Definitely to be re-rated, if I can find it somewhere.

Amber colour and unclear. Has a beige head, lasting. Aroma has notes of laqurice, hops. Flavor is very bitter, nice. Strong body. The rye is difficult to find.

Draught, Bishop’s Arms, Stockholm, Sweden. Light bronze colored beer wit a thin layered foam. Aroma is substantially hoppy with a nice juiciness and floral character and some sweet fruits. Flavor is pretty terrific with loads of tropical fruits, a dry and intense hop character. Finish lingers well. This is a damn good IPA.
