Clay grew up in Melbrewin and developed an appetite for Black Rock, big drumbeats, guitar roars and a deep appreciation for Black Rye IPA. After a heavy session sweating on the drums or scorching his vocal cords Clay likes to sooth the throat with something slick as oil, full of heart and full bodied. Clay has two forms of Rye and Dark malts, a hearty dose of Chinook, El Dorado and Eclipse Hops and is fermented nice and dry with a West Coast Ale Yeast. Rock On Clay!
Cheers #brewhappy #enjoyresponsibly #RockOn
