This is the most bready beer we have made to this day. When we started designing it, we decided we are going to overfill this brew with rye so it has as much rye bread character as possible.
Along with base malt and some specialty malts rye was thrown into this beer in three different shapes. The first and the most known is malted rye. Then there’s fermented rye malt that is mostly know for being widely used in kvass production. Along with all those malts we introduced some wood-fired oven-dried rye bread loaves. They were added into lautering process in order to extract even more rye character.
The smell of this beer resembles kvass. In the taste rye adds a rich bready note to it while being slightly spicy but crisp at the same time. Rye is rich in beta glucans. This adds incredible viscosity that can’t be confused with anything else.
Continental hops balance out the sweetness of this beer without introducing too much fruitiness. Along with neutrally fermenting ale yeast this lets the rye character shine trough.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a hazy amber with an off-white head. Rustic, spicy and bready rye aroma. Medium body, biscuity and bready, a hint of nuts and toffee yet fairly dry. Sufficient hops in the finish. Nice one. 070222
