Great Lakes Brewing Co. - Rye of the Tiger IPA
A pun on the song Eye of the Tiger by Survivor, Rye of the Tiger IPA is a 7.5% ABV rye IPA by Great Lakes from Cleveland, OH. Brewed with rye malt and Columbus, Simcoe, and Warrior hops, this rye IPA is their April seasonal release.
Rye of the Tiger pours a nice golden color with a massive four finger fluffy head, dissipating slowly and leaving a good bit of sticky lacing around the glass. Decent carbonation.
The aroma includes rye, caramel, toasty bread/biscuit, light pine, light citrus.
Rye of the Tiger tasting notes include rye and spice, grapefruit, tangerine, and toasty bread/biscuit. I also got some light pine/resin and maybe a little maple syrup. Medium bodied with a fairly dry finish. Great hop bite on the backend.
Great Lakes Brewing Co. makes some solid beers and this is one of them. It's not my favorite rye IPA but it's still very tasty and worth a sip if you enjoy rye IPAs.
Score: 4/5 (Untappd Caps)
