Tasting Notes

Bitter, sticky, mild rye, citrus

Brewed up a recipe from the Bell's homebrew website in early November. It's fantastic. I planned out to be 3 weeks conditioned for Thanksgiving, but it wasn't even close to hitting it's stride. 7 weeks in the bottle and its so good. The rye malt really shines with the hops (the Zythos in particular). Here is the link to the recipe:

Looks like a great recipe. I really like rye beers, one of my "house" ales is a rye DIPA or rye barleywine depending on how much hops I add. Love that spicy, citrusy flavor. For my recipe I usually hop with some blend of Ahtanum, amarillo, chinook, simcoe, and columbus and it always comes out great. US-05 or 04 tend to compliment well also
