a tasty brew

I enjoyed this beer. I really couldn't taste where the Rye malt made a huge difference though. I had made a similar brew using more Dry Amber malt in place of the Rye malt and had similar tastes. Not a bad taste mind you, but not a slightly drier taste as I would have thought using a little Rye. I would brew this beer again.
