330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 5.3%. Golden brown colour, slightly hazy. Moderate white head. Dryish aroma of wood and lightly roasted malts, hints of ashes. Dry flavour with a slight fruity acidity, notes of wood, rye bread and lightly roasted malts again, some resin. Medium bitter aftertaste.

Pours a slightly cloudy, deep, dark amber coloration with a large, fluffy, lasting head. Smells of toasted, bready, caramel malt and lighter citrus hops, with some lightly spicy notes and just a hint of pine as well. Taste is a great balance of sweet'ish toasted, bready, caramel malt and somewhat lighter citrus hops of grapefruit and tangerine, with some quite noticeable spicy accents, with black pepper standing out, and a hint of pine as well. Finishes with a medium bitterness and some caramel malt, citrus and black pepper lingering in the aftertaste. Full mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

This is an excellent Rye Pale Ale with quite and impressive depth of flavot and mouthfeel for the ABV, with an outstanding balance of sweet, bready, caramel hops, bitter, piney, citrus hops and that spicey rye character.

L: Warm orange, almost copper-y. Decent head.
S: stone and tropical fruit (peach and mango, I'd say). Resin. Hops bomb, in conclusion.
T: Opens with fruit, follows with bitterness. Malt character is subdued. A bit of extra spice and sourness from the rye.
F: Medium bodied, medium carbonation, very dry finish. As it should be.
O: Beautiful RPA

Interesting a rye malt beer in honor of the patron saint; odor; Fruity mermaid, in addition to the taste of a bitter bitter after which a dry finish makes thirsty; A rye beer in balance proves difficult this has been a good success

Bottled
Pours a very very light brown body with huge foaming thick white head that stays
Big rye & hops aroma
The hoppiest rye beer I've had and I think that creates a unbalanced conflictin flavour that is certainly interesting
Slightly to much fizz tbh
