BARREL AGED ALBINO SQUID ASSASSIN Download BeerXML
THIS BEER IS
This tentacled terminator packs a punch - ten punches to be precise. Each hop addition adds to the intense layers of depth in this red rye IPA. Toasty caramel & cinder toffee from crystal malts, cacao richness from intensely roasted malt and the spiciness of rye. Zesty pithiness from Citra and the robust resin of Chinook. This small batch exclusive brew is up-front intensity matched with twisted complexity. Aged in Rye Whisky Casks.

BREWER'S TIP
20% specialty malts in this grist can create problems in the run off. Be careful not to pull the bed down onto the plates.
