The hops also have a flavor of sour fruit like lemons or limes.  There is a slight grainy, or grassy flavor from the rye and only a hint of sweetness.  The rye does give the beer a nice smooth full mouthfeel.  The finish is a little bitter with hop flavors.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t like this beer.  I think the hops are to bitter without any hop flavor and there is no malt to backup the large amount of hops.  I do like the rye mouthfeel but that is the only redeeming quality of this beer.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/cosmos\/search.html?sub=postcosm&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yearofbeer.com%2F2008%2F06%2F296-terrapin-beer-co-rye-pale-ale.html\" title=\"other blogs commenting on this post\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.technorati.com\/images\/bubble.gif\" alt=\"Technorati talk bubble\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\tThe last Rye Pale Ale was Augie&#8217;s RPA for the Heritage Festival.This beer has a nice hoppy aroma with some fruity pineapple notes.
