    Hey everybody,

    So i recently tried FW Wookey Jack Black Rye IPA and loved it! I'm new to the style and wanted to know what other rye beers I should try. Black IPAs? Any suggestions?

    Thanks! :slight_smile:

    Drinking a Ruthless Rye now :slight_smile: I'm sure everyone else will suggest the same although there are other good ones out there.

    Cheers!

    If Boulevard is distributed where you are, Rye On Rye is excellent and out now.

    Boulevard Rye On Rye
    Founder's Red's Rye
    Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye

    I haven't had it yet but I'm wondering how the new Bell's rye beer compares to these?

    FFF's "Rye'da Tiger" is one of the best I've had in a while.

    I'll second Foudners, Hop Rod Rye, and Ruthless... Two Brothers Cane & Ebel and Sixpoint Righteous are two excellent examples not previously mentioned for a very underrated style...

    Surlyfest is my favorite, but it's ridiculous how low of quantity is produced. Rye Wyne Ale is another great one from the good ol' state of Minnesota
