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, best before 2008 sep 05. Nice hoppy aroma, doesn’t let you know what’s coming. Looks okay, but foam is a bit thin. Flavor is honey and hops. also some brown sugar. Totally surprising since it didn’t smell that way. Tastes great but a little too much honey/caramel. You could pour it over cereral, lol.. Quite a surprise, but a nice beer. Not sure if it was intened to taste like this. Tried another bottle. The very sugary taste was less dominant. Now it’s even better.

(Draught at Pikkulintu on 2008-01-24) Strong hoppiness in both nose and taste. Rye used gives some strength to the body which is pleasant.

On tap at Plan B. Pours dark golden with decent sized head. Aroma is very piney with some fruitiness as well. Get some malty sweetness in the aroma when it wamrs up. Taste is very hoppy, more pine trees with some subtle malt background. Average palate with a clean bitter finish. Very solid IPA and very drinkable too.
