Big Basin Ryeizen- a brew from Cory This southern German-style wheat beer was made with a blend of wheat and rye malts to produce a mahogany colored, dark wheat beer. It brings forth a bready aroma and flavor typical of the style, without the prominent banana-clove character. The wheat and yeast in suspension gives this beer a full, creamy mouth feel that progresses to a lighter finish. It is full of flavor with delicious malt character and low yet balancing noble hop bitterness.

Pours a very hazy amber.. So cloudy it looks a little gray.. Weird.. Light banana.. Lesser clove phenol.. Dry toast.. Rye essence is pretty nice... A bit thicker body than I would like.. 1/2 pint is plenty.
