Garrison Rye IPA
So phenolic and astringent I couldn't finish the bottle. Add bitter hops to Spicey rye and a fermentation that must have been wild and you get a beer that is hot. Astringent. And difficult to drink. So glad I picked up some Pils which is excellent.

Re: Garrison Rye IPA
I enjoyed my bottle last evening. Found the hop aroma to be fresh and dank. My only complaints were that the bitterness and hop flavour seemed to fall off really quickly. At the back if the tongue all flavour seemed to completely drop off.

Re: Garrison Rye IPA
I've had a couple of bottles and it was just fine. Never had a Rye IPA before, but it seemed pretty run of the mill.

I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain -
Quaintest thoughts - queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe

Re: Garrison Rye IPA
I really enjoyed it. Thought the rye gave it an interesting dry spicy twist.
