Hop Rod Rye
Here is a review of a non-oregon beer. It is brewed in close by california. In fact it may be one of the only things I like about california!
Anyway, this beer has an amazing flavor and aroma. The aroma of hops is wonderful! Very flowery, which would cause some to think it is bitter. No so! It is not very bitter at all, just good hop flavor. This is complemented by the rye. They use rye grains to brew with, which gives it that rye dryness to it. It also helps to up the alcohol percentage a bit, up to 7.5%.
All that has combined to make it my current favorite beer. Yummy!
