It might be a sin, but take the bet and you won’t regret this beer from start to end! In a collaboration spanning Oregon’s bountiful Willamette Valley to Virginia’s heartland, Steve Crandall and Jason Oliver of Devils Backbone Brewing took the bet and gave the Devil his due when our founding brewer, Jamie Floyd, came ‘a calling. What the trio first described as “a sort of West Coast, German-Style Roggenbier” turned into an Imperial Dark Rye, offering an elevated alcohol percentage and a crisp, lager-like finish from the Alt yeast fermentation. Give the Devil his due! Malts Bohemian Pilsner, Premium Pilsner, 2-Row Pale, Dark Wheat, Rye, Crystal Rye, Golden Naked Oats, Midnight Wheat Hops Chinook, Simcoe, Mt. Hood, Willamette, Tettnang

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8
22 oz bottle. Pours clear red amber with a big frothy off white head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is subdued - chocolate malt and rye.
The flavor is sweet bready chocolate malts with a lot of spicy rye, a little fruit, and a bigger than expected bitter finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.
Overall, I enjoyed this. It’s nicely balanced.
