Not sure this is exactly "to style" but it's a recipe I've done a few time with some success and wanted to get some thoughts from HBT. It's more of a strong bitter due to higher ABV. I've toyed around with adding sugar but decided against it (for now).
I like the addition of rye in this beer and am always looking for suggestions on improvements.
