Basqueland Miss American Rye

This American Rye IPA showcases a refined collaboration using WLP001 California Ale yeast for a surgically clean fermentation. The grist, featuring spicy Rye malts, Vienna, and Carapils, establishes a complex foundation of toasted bread and distinct peppery spice. Bright aromatics of grapefruit and succulent melon driven by Citra hops intertwine with the unique herbal and wild grass notes of Comet hops. On the palate, the experience is defined by a firm bitterness and a lean, dry finish that emphasizes the grainy rye character. It is a vibrant, highly drinkable expression of the style, balancing pungent New World hop oils with a robust, spicy malt backbone.
