Commercial Description:
Pours a spectacular crimson red with a creamy tan head. Brewed with four varieties of Belgian caramel malts imparting a sweet richness. Reds Rye is impressively balanced with its hop bitterness and floral bouquet achieved from the dry hop. In the finish, the generous amount of malted rye used accentuates a spicy crisp finish.

Bottle purchased from BeerGeek.biz. Shipping was damn expensive so I’m glad it was good! Really nice reddish color with a tan head and great retention/lacing. Aroma is sweet malt, caramel, rye, and some hops. Flavor is like a RyePA, sweet bready, ryey (not a word, I know) malt, honey, spices, and citrusy hops. Really tasty. Medium body with a creamy palate.

Just a shade less than an IPA, with a nice but not overbearing rye spiciness. Very refreshing with a good bitterness. A very good beer that deserves a spot in anyone;s regular rotation.

Pours a hazy red with an off-white head. Nose is spice, rye, and some honey sweetness. Flavor is refreshing- spicy rye with a bit of a twang. Very enjoyable, refreshing beer, reminscent of Terrapin RPA.

Bottle. Pours a nice rich red/amber color. Great malt, rye, hops and some honey combine for a super nose. Flavor is smooth and has a great balance between malt and hops. The rye keeps things interesting. Very nice beer.

My god, this is good. So crisp and refreshing, but packed with flavor. The rye makes it bite just enough. I want a keg of this. TIED WITH ZARTAN

Dark in color with an off white head. Nice poured beer. Aroma of hops and bread. Taste is sweet with some hops and a little pepper and rye spice aspect. Nice body. Very balanced and good and clean.
