Schremser Roggen

◎ Appearance

Deep golden to pale amber hue, characteristic of rye-forward grain bills. Naturally cloudy throughout with suspended yeast and grain proteins, creating a soft, hazy appearance. The head is dense and persistent, with fine bubbles that cling to the glass in delicate lacing patterns.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with earthy rye spice—peppery and slightly herbal—layered beneath warm bready notes from the Waldviertel malt. Subtle yeast character adds a light minerality and gentle wheat note, with a clean, grassy undertone that speaks to the beer's regional grain heritage.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with pronounced spicy-earthy rye character that anchors the drinking experience, complemented by soft bready and slightly sweet malt flavors. Low bitterness (14 IBU) allows the grain character to dominate, while a light mineral dryness and crisp finish prevent any heaviness, leaving the beer refreshingly clean.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and moderately short, with lingering earthy spice notes that fade gradually into a clean, slightly grainy aftertaste. The natural carbonation provides a gentle prickle that enhances the crisp, refreshing character.
