A dry hopped American Rye Pilsener. Obey the siren song of the mythological Coney Island Mermaid. Four spicy hops flow into seven golden malts. Perfect as a momentary distraction, or equally enchanting as a parade towards deeper delights. When beer tastes this good, and you don’t have scurvy, you don’t need a lime!
Leading off is Melanoidin malt and 2-row malted wheat, giving this beer its brilliant straw color. Up next is a trio of Cascade, Nelson and Amarillo hops, hitting it out of the park with their delightful aroma. Rounding out the Home Plate lineup is a well-balanced bitterness sure to please dedicated and casual hop fans alike.
