Bittersweet Lenny R.I.P.A

Sweet Bunny selected Bittersweet Lenny R.I.P.A on her last visit for Brother B and I to imbibe.

It's hard not to like a "Chosen Beer" so cleverly labelled, "Warning: Contains Explicit Adult Material * 21+ Only" in homage to Lenny Bruce. This beer is "brewed with an obscene amount of malts and hops." This is no mere beer. This is no mild IPA. Its a double IPA with rye malts. Shmaltz Brewing boldy gives you a big beer with a big taste using the following malts and hops:

Malts: 2-row, Rye Ale Malt, Torrified Rye, Crystal Rye 75, Crystal Malt 65, Wheat, Kiln Amber, Caramel 70

Hops: Warrior, Cascade, Simcoe, Crystal, Chinook, Amarillo, Centennial. Dry Hopped with Amarillo and Crystal

The rye IPA is like a barley wine. It has a distinct carmel flavor with a slightly bitter after taste. I agree with the packaging, "Chutzpah never tasted so good." Go try one today.
