This was highlighted as a German style Rye.
They were served in a classic Pint glass with one finger of a foamy head.
I thought this was an Excellent beer.
It was a light golden color with a nice spicy aroma.
The head did dissipate rather quickly, but a healthy amount of lacing reminded you of the beer you had recently enjoyed.
Flavor had a spicy note of a pilsner but also a nice dry/ "biscuity" finish.
I don't honestly know much about the Rye style but I noted it was slightly less hoppy than is classic pilsner. Yet I still felt it was nicely balanced and loved the bready finish.
If you can, I'd head here to try this offering.
I honestly don't know if it is a limited edition or a staple.
Enjoy.
