Thump Keg Touts George Dickel-ized Rye IPA
Pennsylvania-based Thump Keg Brewery is celebrating the return of spring and the impending arrival of summer with two new beers – an Agave Amber Ale and Rye IPA. Aside from being summer beers, each has the distinction of being brewed with the same foundation ingredients as a pair of recognizable spirit brands – Peligroso Tequila in the case of the Agave Amber Ale and George Dickel Whiskey in the case of the Rye IPA. While the Rye IPA is associated with the George Dickel whiskey, it is important to note that no actual amount of George Dickel whiskey is mixed with the beer – it merely uses the same grains that a George Dickel whiskey uses for its end product.
The Thump Keg George Dickel-ized Rye IPA has a 6.2% alcohol content while the Agave Amber Ale has a 5.8% alcohol content.
