    I love rye in beers as well. These are my favorites:

    -Westbrook one caw rye Pale Ale
    - Sixpoint Righteous Rye Ale
    - Otter Creek Kind Ryed IPA

    Boulevards Rye on Rye is very good. I've noticed a big difference between the 2013 and 2014 versions. My opinion is 2013 is significantly better.

    Rye is not a phase.

    It's a lifestyle choice.

    A class all by itself.
    I forget it is a rye--my favorite beer--period. Wish I could get it more.

    Had Masked Bandit IPA from Piney River last weekend...a black rye IPA that they just started canning...excellent beer!!!

    So good I had to stop at a local bottle shop this evening and have a few pints on draft...tapped a day a go.

    I rated Boulevard Rye on Rye pretty highly and marked it to have again, so will add another vote for it.

    I have always enjoyed Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye, although it's sparsely available around me.

    It seems many breweries are going through this phase too, and it makes me happy!

    As someone stated above, Nelson is amazing; however, Alpine does not distribute outside of California (at least according to seekabrew). Also, Mike Hess Brewing makes an imperial stout with a rye base called Umbrix. I think that's one of the most underrated imperial stouts around, and it's one of my favorite non-barrel treated imperial stouts. Again, though, MHB only has distribution in two states (CA & AZ). You should be able to make some trades, though. Good luck!

    Not Rye Whiskey Barrel aged, but if you like Rye IPA's Rustic Rye from my hometown brewery Bootlegger's is one of thier flagship beers (and a Beauty), and at less than $6 a bomber it's a bargain.

    If you try Rye-on-Rye, your phase will become a personality trait.

    It's a "ryewine" aged in Templeton Rye barrels.

    Cane & Ebel is one of my favorites. It's fantastic.

    Also, if you can get it, Shmaltz He'Brew Bittersweet Lenny's R.I.P.A is superb.

    Your life will change if you ever get a shot at BCBS Templeton Rye.
