BrewDog Rye Hammer
This Specialty IPA is a high-intensity fusion of aggressive hopping and spicy grain character. The aromatic profile is dominated by a complex blend of Centennial, Columbus, Simcoe, Citra, and Amarillo hops, delivering a pungent harvest of grapefruit, mango, and resinous pine. A sturdy backbone of biscuit and roasted caramel malts provides balance, while the addition of rye introduces a signature spicy warmth and slickness to the palate. It finishes with a bracing, trademark bitterness that lingers alongside a dry, clean malt presence, staying true to its lineage of bold, super-charged hybrids.
Appearance. Dark brown (25–35 SRM) and clear. Features a persistent, moderate light tan head with strong lacing.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring notes of grapefruit, tropical mango, and resinous pine. Moderate spicy rye character blends with toasted biscuit and a background of caramel sweetness. Clean fermentation profile.
Taste. Initial impact of citrus and tropical fruit from the heavy hop load. Mid-palate reveals spicy rye grain and biscuit malt flavors with a touch of roasted caramel. Bitterness is very high and assertive. Finishes dry with a lingering resinous and bitter aftertaste that is not harsh.
Mouthfeel. Medium-bodied with a smooth, slightly oily texture from the rye. Moderate carbonation. Noticeable alcohol warmth is present but remains well-integrated.
