On-draught @ the brewery.
Aroma is bready and a bit toasty, but German yeast dominates with phenols and esters bouncing around...clove, banana/banana bread, bubblegum. Rye's signature spiciness isn't evident, unfortunately.
Taste is bready as well, with plump malt sweetness from brown malt and 2 row evident but no obvious rye. Yeasty notes are prominent if not dominant, with bubblegum and banana leading the pack of phenols/esters. Evokes brown bread.
For a roggenbier, it's surprisingly unemphatic of rye malt, coming off tasting more like a dunkel than anything else. Though not a great expression of the intended style, it's very competent work outside of style conventions and I'd probably get it again.
