Red Rye

◎ Aussehen

A clear, deep amber-red body with good brilliance, reflecting the melanoidin malt and rye composition. The head is creamy and displays firm lacing as the beer is consumed, settling to a persistent collar that clings to the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with toasted bread crust and dark caramel notes from the six-malt blend, followed by earthy undertones characteristic of rye grain. A restrained layer of US and European hops adds light citrus and herbal nuance without dominating the bouquet.

◐ Geschmack

On the palate, dark bread, toasted crust, and caramel enter first, underpinned by the peppery, slightly spicy dryness of rye. The bitterness remains integrated and understated at 30 IBU, allowing the malt complexity and grain character to lead. Medium body supports this balance without heaviness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and decidedly dry, with grainy notes lingering on the palate. The aftertaste echoes the toasted malt and rye spice without astringency.
