Happy Birthday Barb Sherman
HOP ROD RYE- Specialty Ale
12 fluid ounces, 8% ALC. BY VOL.
Brewed and Bottled by Bear Republic Brewing Co., INC, Healdburg Cloverdale, CA
+++++

FROM THE LABEL: "Hop Rod Rye is a high performance turbo charged, alcohol burnin' monster ale with dual overhead hop injection made with 18% rye. Brew Master Notes: Don't drink and drag. Sediment at bottom of bottle may be a result of the truckload of hops in this non-filtered ale. Independent since 1995. Sonoma County Ales."


FROM THE MOUTH: Yup, this is hop injected and I would say the label is true to it's character. It is full bodied and the hops dont just linger on your tongue- they speed all the way down your throat and burn rubber. Very nicely blended with a bit of coffee flavor at the end. A-

FROM THE GRILL: Halibut with mashed potatoes and a feta salad

FROM THE STORE: Huckleberries

content of their character
