Brewers Notes:

Very tasty brown, nice and hoppy, but not harsh at all. The choclate rye is an awesome malt and makes a great brown, but do not look for rye character. The Irish ale leaves the beer nice and malty with a dryer finish that lets the hops linger. This scored a 43 at the Dredhop in '99.
