TV Party

Tap to rate

TV Party is a rye IPA at 7.3% ABV with toasty rye flavor and a spiciness that comes with it, next to a floral hop aroma. The brewery counts it as an installment in its Repo Man soundtrack series, and it returns for a new season as a limited release from Chicago. Potent yet easy to drink, it comes on draft and in cans.

◌ Aroma

The nose combines toasted rye grain with bright floral hop aromatics, creating an inviting complexity. Herbal and slightly peppery notes emerge as the beer warms, complemented by subtle citrus undertones from the noble hops. The overall aromatic profile is clean and layered, with the grain and hop character in natural balance.

◐ Taste

Entry brings immediate toasted malt character from the rye base, warming into a full-bodied middle palate with gentle spice that complements rather than dominates. Moderate hop bitterness arrives mid-palate without aggression, allowing the floral and slightly peppery dimensions to develop. The finish holds a balanced 60 IBU bite that feels proportionate to the grain sweetness rather than harsh.

◑ Finish

The finish lingers cleanly with residual rye spice and a gentle hop grip that fades steadily. Aftertaste remains dry and slightly peppery without any sharp astringency, encouraging continued sipping.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
