Another great tournout for the eve of Thanksgiving! All of our closest friends showed up to get a taste of the wonderful Christmas Ale. This year they had a few more great tastes, a Rye Pale Ale and an Ale aged in burbon barrles. My overall impression of the Rye of the Tiger was that it had a wonderful haze that resembled grapfruitjuice. Its spicy rye characteristic was completely over the top, it almost tasted a bit sour. There was enough hop bitterness, but seemed to be more of the spicy rye. They state it is an IPA. I agree.

The Rackhouse Ale which is a “Sweet ale” meaning they made it up because there is no category for “Sweet Ale” was my favoite that evening. It was like drinking a warm glass of malt with a subtle vanilla after note. Served slightly warm in a snifter. I had one. Heh.

It was a great evening. I have lots of pics in the Photography section. Check them out!
