hopIQ found 10 beers that share Black Rye IPA's bitter and chocolate character. Pineapple pieces in dark chocolate: that is the intense nose of this ebony-coloured beer, with espresso alongside. The first sip runs through caramel and honey tones into dark chocolate, toffee and southern fruit, and ends in a pronounced bitter finish. Creamy and velvety in the mouth. Brewed with roasted and rye malt and Cascade, Amarillo and Galaxy hops, 7.2% ABV.
