Radical is a juicy/hazy Rye India Pale Ale with a bodacious dose of Citra® hops. A touch of rye in the grain bill adds a hearty dimension which we think makes it pretty rad. Fermented with our house hazy yeast this IPA hits 6.6% alcohol by volume and is dry-hopped for a big citrusy note

Hazy IPAs have become a go to of mine, and Gnarly Barley does them right. This one pours a hazy golden honey color (nothing out of the ordinary). Head is strong; white in color. The smell of this one is not gonna knock you down, but it has notes of mainly citrus (mandarin and grapefruit) and somewhere between a rye bread and sourdough bread on the nose. The taste of this puppy at first is not too unlike other good hazy’s out there, however, because this one has been brewed and fermented with rye, it does have another layer consisting of those piney, slightly malty and smoky notes. I think the rye really adds a nice twist to the finish. Overall, very good beer. Would recommend this one to all the hazy fans out there.

Grapefruit citrus bite. Conventional but enjoyable - albeit uninspired.

Very nice IPA. Bit different, but good.
