Sixpoint Righteous Rye

February 25, 2010 by justin · Leave a Comment 

It’s Thursday night, LGBT night at Mezze. Had great fun hanging at Mezze with some friends and drinking the fine Sixpoint Righteous Rye.  Mezze is a big fan of Sixpoint, out of Brooklyn, NY, and this is one of the staples that they keep on tap.  The Righteous Rye is a fine little bitter ale.

It pours a nice redish colour with a little creamy head.  The aroma is very bready and toasty.  Seriously smells like toasted rye bread.  The rye comes through as a little spicey kick to this beer.  The hops are also fairly strong in a grassy floral way.  I don’t think this beer is balanced though.  The hops and bread are just a bit off.  That might be the rye part, I don’t often drink rye beers and when I do I am not a big fan.

While I was at the bar I also had some wonderful sourdough bread and a fine olive platter.

Beautiful night, beautiful friends, beautiful beer.

About justin
I’m justin. I am a kind of quirky guy, and a beer drinker. I love beer! I have been planning for awhile to do some type of a beer-a-day thing and after much thought, and research, I am ready. Many people have tried to do the one a day idea before, many have failed. Some have succeeded! I hope to succeed and experience a wide variety of brews. The goal is to drink a different beer everyday for 365 days (or one year). I might drink more than one a day, and I will document that here.
