Much like normal Red's Rye but with just a hint of oak and bourbon.

Looks like it should. Ruby reddish with very little head. Orange hints as well.

Caramel malts citrusy hops with the great presence of oak. Bold caramel and toffee really show through with a hint of bourbon.

Agind seems to have tamed the hops. A slight bourbon bite yet still good hop bitterness and wood tannins on the finish. Big on caramel and toffee with a citrusy twist. Easy to drink.

Doesn't taste at all like the original Red Rye. Much sweeter with hints of vanilla. Still a good beer, I was just surprised in the difference.
