Description
A seasonal winter brew on keg our 5% Red Rye has a complex malt bill to match the wonderful New World hops.
Pale Ale Crystal, Munich and Carapils lay the foundation for two types of rye malt - straight up and crystal rye.
These malts work well with the assertive US hops as they give the beer a full, smooth mouthfeel with a slightly spicy finish.
This is a complex malt bill that marries together different flavours and hues to produce the vibrant red colour and mighty body.
Hops - Target for bittering, Mosaic and Columbus for aroma.
This hop pairing combines flavours and aromas rich in mango, lemon, citrus, earthy pine, tropical fruit, and stone fruit notes from the Mosaic which are then subtly contrasted by the piney citrus classic that is Columbus.
