Aged in fresh rye whiskey and Kentucky bourbon barrels for six weeks, Kentucky Rye Barrel IPA is a unique rye India Pale Ale boasting a citrusy character in the nose and finish.
The rye grain, beloved by distillers for decades and embraced by today’s craft brewers, adds complexity and black pepper notes to the brew and highlights the fruity and bitter traits of the hops. Add soft notes of vanilla and ribbons of oak and rye from the barrel, and you’ve got a crisp, complex beer to help awaken you from winter hibernation.
