Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailICON Rye IPA (Blue)

I wanted to make a big west coast IPA with tons of Mosaic and thought rye would add an interesting element to it. This copper colored take on an American IPA uses Rye and Cara Rye to add a distinct spicy flavor. The sweetness from those malts help balance out the bitterness created by the six varieties of American hops used in the beer. Columbus, Chinook, Centennial, Cascade, Simcoe and Mosaic combine to create a fruity, piney bouquet of flavors. The beer is fermented with our house yeast and has two huge Mosaic dry hop additions to create an aggressive depth in the aroma.
