Smooth, creamy, and spicy are the best words to capture the essence of this dark, satisfying brew. Its rye base gives it a sparky note that is balanced by the crispness of Canadian Pale malt and the smoothness of oats, while a lactose addition to the brew imparts silky creaminess. Drinkable, dark, refreshing, smooth, malty, creamy...this beer might have a split personality, but the two opposing sides combine like Frank and Claire Underwood, WSBC smoked pork and nachos, or sharks and those little fish that follow it around and clean up after it. You get the picture.
