About Rye IPA

Rye IPAs blend the bold bitterness of American hops with the distinctive spice of rye malt, creating a unique and flavourful twist on the classic IPA.

The rye adds a dry, peppery note and a subtle grainy edge, enhancing the beer's complexity and giving it a slightly fuller body. This combination results in a crisp, layered profile that balances hop intensity with malt character. 

Rye IPAs are refreshing yet bold, offering a distinctive take for those seeking more depth and nuance in their hoppy brews. It’s an inventive style that stands out while staying true to IPA roots.
