Notes

First Brewed 03/2014

A hoppy Rye Ale loaded with an avalanche of citrus and resinous flavours. Columbus, our high-alpha friend, lends a huge pithy citrus blast, with Ahtanum providing a punchy tropical fruit back-up. Brewing with rye adds a spiciness to the speciality malt caramel backbone, giving a warm ginger snap flavour, before slowly the hops, barley and rye combine and build to an orangey, biscuity, almost chocolatey crescendo.
Columbus and Ahtanum hop additions create a perfect blend of resin and lemon character.
