Mayflower Rye IPA has a large portion of Rye malt, which adds a spicy malt profile. Heavily hopped with Columbus and dry hopped with a newer hop called Azacca, the intense hop flavor and aroma is unmistakable. The finish on the beer is bitter and dry, at 80 IBUs and nearly 8% ABV. This is a keg only beer, which was limited to one run. Only available in Massachusetts.

On-tap 3/23/2014 at British Beer Company, in Walpole, MA served in a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a deep golden brown color, with a medium dense off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a very thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains floral hops, caramelized rye malts, some citrus and some spice.
T: The taste starts out with a strong hops bitterness followed by some mildly sweet flavors of caramel, citrus and spices. The malt character is hearty and brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly bready and slightly hoppy.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is dry and slightly sticky.
O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, good kick, good representation of style, this is a very solid beer to drink for a long time.
