Sichel

Sichel is a rustic rye lager built on a robust base of 55% rye. Its malt profile is deepened with toasty Vienna Malt, the subtle sweetness of crystal rye, and the roasted nuance of chocolate malt. A single decoction mash coaxes out more cereal grain character. Fermented with our house lager yeast and a throw back to our roots with extended lagering in toasted French oak to add layers of depth and complexity.

Pouring rich amber in color with an off-white head, Sichel offers an inviting aroma of toasted bread, cocoa husk, and gentle rye spice. On the palate, it strikes a balance between caramelized grain, earthy spice, and a whisper of dark chocolate bitterness. Softly hopped with East Kent Goldings, the finish is dry, herbal, and delicately bitter.
