Sam Adams Revolutionary Rye Ale




















The Dirt
A recently added beer to the Sam Adams lineup, most recently in the spring variety pack. Unlike some of the other rye beers I've had, rye is the focus of this beer (versus being a pale ale or something). This is clear while drinking, as the spice and grab of the rye lingers throughout the beer. That combined with the traditional ale nature of this beer brings a well balanced brew with a sweet finish. You also get a hint of dry hops in the middle, giving it a bit more character. A very tasty medium bodied brew that's refreshing.

Worth it?
I bought this as part of the spring variety pack, which is always worth it given the other beers that tag along. I've bought this on draft too, and would definitely buy again. A good beer to relax with and to identify the rye difference.

The Final Word
