The Audacity of Hops
This strong rye ale features 44 lbs of hops in a 7 barrel batch to create a beer worthy of special event. A small percentage of rye malt in the mash gives this beer further character. Audacity of Hops is the kind of ale that unites beer drinkers from both sides of the isle.

Wonderful rye tone, slightly cloudy and golden..

Smell is bursting with citrus and rye, with a light caramel malt presence.

The taste is wonderfully citrus and bitter hops with a great compliment of rye. Really a well balanced flavor.

Leaves the mouth slightly dry, and wanting more. Had a great opportunity to try this one before its major release. They only had 2 kegs of it right off the get-go. Go have one, you will not be disappointed.
