Commercial Description:
In honor of our adventurous friends at Sky Dive Inc. in Hastings, Michigan, we crafted a truly adventurous brew in Sky High Rye. A West Coast-style Pale Ale with rye malt, Sky High Rye boasts a massive floral aroma of resinous hops. The hops contribute flavor notes of lemons, peaches, and pine needles, combined with the sweet, malty flavors of toffee and bread. Rye adds a pleasant peppery, spicy note like a fresh slice of pumpernickel bread. Very well-rounded and very drinkable, Sky High Rye will surely inspire adventure in all who taste it.

Bomber bottle poured to a Czech pils glass a hazy, orange/amber hue with a foamy, off white head and tight, lasting ribbons of lacing. The nose was mellow malt, citrus, orange and lemon zest, and a touch of pine. The flavor added distinct dryness and appropriate hop bitterness. The body was medium and the mouthfeel was clean.

22oz bottle split with BeerGestapo. Poured a lightly hazed amber with a small head. The nose was citrus and toffee. Tastes of grapefruit, caramel, and bread with a little bit of rye spiciness in the finish. Smooth but very noticeable bitterness, this was more of an IPA than a roggen.

22oz. Bottle: Aroma of hops, rye, pine, citrus, and a hint of toasted malts. Poured orange/amber in color with a medium-sized, creamy, rocky, off-white head that lasted throughout. Slightly hazy and lightly cloudy. Slightly sparkling. Full of tiny particles throughout. Good to very good lacing. Flavor is lightly sweet and light to medium bitter. Tastes of hops, rye, pine, light citrus, slight cream, slight toasting, slight caramel, and a hint of vanilla. Light to medium body. Thin, oily texture. Average carbonation. Hoppy, rye, and slight caramel finish is a bit sticky.

22oz bottle 6/8/09 (Binny’s Naperville)-Pours a clear golden with a small white head and an aroma of pine, rye, and hops. Taste of the same with a bit of sweetness comng through. This medium bodied brew is not bad but I feel a bit bland and I was expecting more.
