This spring Bridgeport Brewing will bring out something new – a full-bodied hoppy ale using rye malt and whole leaf hops aptly named Smooth Ryed.
“This recipe creates a smooth, solid base for a big load of hop aroma from Oregon Centennial hops. We source the malts from Great Western Malting just across the river in Vancouver and the hops from good friends at two local farms about 35 miles south of Portland,” commented brewmaster, Jeff Edgerton. “We use only Centennials in the hopjack so that the consumer will get the wonderful full flavor and aroma that only those hops have.”Smooth Ryed will be available in all states where BridgePort is distributed starting in late December and early January.
