Postmortem Brew Review

Caramel malt with pine hop scent.
Two finger white head. Good nucleation of bubbles in the glass.
Malty rye soaked taste.
Tons of spiderweb lacing.
Medium bodied. Creamy and hoppy finish.
Grim Reaper's Eulogy
This was a surprise draft selection from an obscure brewery on Long Island. The brew, a rye ale, is such a new addition, there is scant info about it on their website. There are a few pictures of the fellow, (let's call him Mob Barley, shall we?), hinting that this must be a new brew from their repertoire.
Blue Point seems to have quite a few styles of beers and ales. The spectrum covers just about all the popular brews for which one could ask. Rastafa Rye is a steady rocking rye flavored hop ale that is sure to please rye fans and hop-heads alike. It's some cool runnin' brain wash, mon!
I'll be looking for more Blue Point beers in the future.
I really like this beer. I loved the heavy rye in the body. t scored 91 ponts when all was said and done. Blue Point makes some decent stuff.

Oh ya, mon! That is a good ale. I am going to be on the lookout for more from Blue Point. I had not heard of them prior to my beer-tender's recommendation. I am going to listen to him more closely from now on!
