Rugbrød
Name – Rugbrød
Country – United States
Type – Rye Beer
Appearance – Poured a darker brown color with a tan head. Looks like cola.
Smell – The nose is pretty spicy. I can pick up rye in this, as it says on the bottle. A little bit of cocoa detected as well.
Taste – The taste is very dry. Bready along with the rye. There is a cocoa aspect as well and just an over all spiciness going on.
For my first proper review of a beer from The Bruery since arriving in South Florida I wen with this one first. I loved the way the description sounded. Now I have been disappointed in the past with beers that have rye in the name and then it is very faintly picked up if it is at all. This one was not in that category. While it does not hit you in the face with the rye it is very easily detected. I very much enjoyed this one. I am so glad this brewery is here now.
Overall Grade – B+

Not a fan. I’ve not had it in the bottle…only on tap. I don’t think it’s bad but it’s not up to par with some of the other Bruery stuff.

I also have a bottle of Saison Rue and two of 2 Turtle Doves. Going to age one and drink the other. I have had 2 Turtle Doves before and loved it. Just need to give it a proper review.
