COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This beer will surprise you with a big hop flavor and a toasty sweet aroma. Pours black from the chocolate and de-bitterized black rye malts. This ale is medium bodied and is well flavored with hints of toffee, nutty undertones and a dry crisp finish.

Silphium (2718) - East Lansing, Michigan, USA - SEP 22, 2004
On tap at Founders and also newly bottled (the first new bottled Founders beer in some time). This is a rather aggressively hopped dark rye beer; the crisp, spicy, piney hops complement the tingly, spicy, and somewhat fruity rye malt. The flavor profile is quite dense and almost takes on a roasted character. I think this will be popular once it’s distributed.
