Hop Rod Rye is a rather interesting beer. Take a well hopped IPA... add a nice amount of Rye to it and what do you get? This!
The beer pours to a dark amber color with a nice fluffy head, that slowly goes away upon drinking.. but leaves a nice consistent lacing throughout the entire glass.
The scent of hops hits the nose instantly upon smelling and it's truly a thing of beauty for anyone who considers themselves a hop head.
From the first sip, you know this is a hop lovers dream. Sure there's some malt backing, but the hops dominate from the start. Piney, slightly citric and just plain delicious. The rye doesn't have a huge presence, but you can still tell it's there and if anything it helps to balance things out a little.
This beer is insanely drinkable and worthy of the hype it receives
A world class beer that I would recommend to anyone.
