This tasty Red Rye Winter Ale will keep you toasty warm throughout the cold winter season. It’s deliciously balanced with flavors of sweet malt and a slight spice from the rye. With piney notes of Juniper Berries that are added to the boil with just the right amount of Cascade and Chinook Hops, this beer goes down smooth whether you're strolling about on a snowy night or curling up next to an open fire. Pick up a a pint, a keg, or a growler of this delightful jolly brew to serve with all of your festive dishes and at all of your holiday events.

Poured out from a growler. Dark brown in color. Somewhat fruity, figs, holiday spices and earthy malt. Medium bodied. Slightly bitter, semi dry and well balanced. Not bad, not great. Eh.

Looks good. Pours a nice deep red. Pretty much downhill from there. Weak smell. It doesn't tell you much. The first taste is confusing then interesting followed by disappointment. Nothing really stands out. You can taste the rye but they must have forgot to put anything else in this one. I'm bored with it ........Next!!!

Everything is in excellent balance here, sweet dark malts, very subdued distinctive hops under a bunch of other flavors and rye. The whole experience is a well-integrated winter ale, and a delicious one - spot on!

This tastes like what it is, a spiced rye beer. Good for a winter. Stay in school.

Dark Amber color with decent head and mild carbonation. Sweet aroma with hints of baking chocolate. Tastes like it smells. Sweet. Ginger herbal flavors. Don't taste the cascade in the foreground.
