Tasting Notes

Hard Truth's Malted Rye is a fascinating Indiana rye pushing boundaries with a sweet mash and hefty dose of malted rye (over 40%) alongside standard rye. Bottled at a potent 56.1% ABV, this isn't your grandpa's rye. Expect a unique profile, think rye bread meets caramel sweetness on the nose, followed by warm baking spices and a lingering heat. Some find it sweet, almost maple-like, while others appreciate the bold rye spice. It's a conversation starter, a modern rye experiment worth exploring if you're looking for something different.
