Brewed with 20% rye malt. Hopped with Denali, Mosaic, and Azacca. A wonderfully complex rye IPA with fruit and grainy notes throughout. Aromas of citrus and pineapple and slight rye heartiness. Flavors of tangerine, grapefruit, and mango, with light pine and a mild peppery so from the rye. Pours hazy with a deep orange hue and a lasting creamy head.

Listed as a “rye IPA” it has the cloudiness of a juicy IPA without full opaqueness. A sonewhat ugly burnt orange with a Minos Ike particulate haze isn’t the most enticing to me. Head is fair and produces lace for the first third of the glass to counter this.
Nose is a combination of overripe tropical fruit and rye spice. The mix of these with more subtle notes (tangerine, coconut, mango rind) has me expecting some hop burn.
Taste starts like a medium thick, juicy IPA with a bit more citrus than tropical fruit, unexpectedly. There is some tropical notes and some malt and rye that mix in early enough. Just a tad hot on the feel, the overripe juice notes outweigh the rye spice flavors.
The beer has a lean towards a woody bitterness underneath the higher fruit notes. I like rye and hoped it’d be a little more of the star given the menu’s claim.
