Collaboration brewed with Tim Ogden of Cigar City Brewpub. Rye IPA brewed with Florida honey and Temple Oranges.

Appearance: Arrives at the bar (Cigar City) as a dark brown liquid with orange highlights; the tan cap leaves some streaks of lace behind

Smell: Somewhat toasty, with caramel and orange tones

Taste: Toasted rye bread and caramel, up front, with orange and pine flavors building in the middle; there is a bit of honey in the finish but otherwise, the bitter citrusy and spicy rye flavors are dominant, after the swallow

Mouthfeel: Medium to full body with moderate carbonation

Overall: The toasted rye flavors add a nice dimension to a beer that is awfully close to being an ABA
