Our Flagship Pale Ale is brewed with Rye Malt, Citra hops and Unicorn Tears. Originally made as a house beer which we had no intentions of sharing, this pale ale is loaded with enticing tropical fruit aromas from the unique Citra hop, a bready malt backbone, and hints of spicy rye throughout. Put this full-frontal assault of deliciousness all up in your grill immediately!

Draft at PKWY Marks. Looking at the score and hoping to have socks knocked off....and my socks are still on. Doh! It’s not bad, pretty solid APA, but not outstanding. Medium golden with tight cap of head, sheets of lacing. Light citrusy aroma, orange peel. Taste adds some of the rye mustiness to the bitter citrus, and it works well together. Lingering bitterness, oily.

Really nice rye presence on this one - warm rye spice, Citra isn’t overdone & adds a nice tropical note that helps balance out the rye, not super dynamic but a really good beer if you like rye
