Commercial Description:
We Consider this an extreme version of an American Pale Ale. It has a very up front floral and citrus aroma from a late cascade addition and dry hopping with Amarillo. This beer also has a big malt background to balance the bitterness of the hops. The rye malt cleans up your palette after you swallow so the hop flavor does not stick in your mouth too long.
Now available in bottles.

Bottled. Brown, hazy color, not much head. Hoppy, bready malty nose. Light, sweetish, rye malty. American hops are evident here. Much more APA than "real" rye ale.

[Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival] Clear deep golden. Aroma of rye bread and lychee. Medium sweet with rounded chewy mouthfeel and medium body. Lots of crystal malt. Plenty of hop flavour, but a lot of bitterness.

Bottle courtesy of Mr_Kimchee: Poured an hazy dirty yellow color ale with a medium bubbly head with average retention. Aroma of citrus hops and big malt is easily identifiable. Taste is well balance mix between big malt with some noticeable rye presence as well as a bitter finish with cirtusy hops. Body is above average and carbonation is a bit lower then expected. Another fine beer from this great brewery.

Yumy! Dark amber colour with an inviting but semi faint aroma of citrus. The flavour is quite nice, a good pale ale flavour with some hoppiness and a nice finish that is quite distinctly the rye, with a bit of spice that does’t linger and as advertised, cleans up the palate.

Awesome beer, It pours a nice deep golden/amber color, good head. Nice hoppy little aroma. I can definatley taste a difference b/c of the rye. Something I would visit again.
