I am looking forward to taking a crack at the Roggenbier style, but seeing as I’ve never even tasted one before, I was hoping for some advice from the HBT community before I brew it. I imagine the resulting flavor is a cross between a dunkelweizen and a rye ale. Problem is, I really don’t enjoy hefe banana bombs, so I want to emphasize the phenolic side as much as possible here.
The beer is largely based on my dunkelweizen recipe, exchanging wheat for rye.
