Common descriptors are
We’re introducing this traditional German style (now extinct) to the San Diego market. This rye beer is similar to a Dunkelweizen (dark Hefeweizen), but uses a large portion (>40%) of malted Rye instead of the wheat. As a result of the rye, Rail Grab features a complex rye bread-like spiciness with notes of banana and clove in the aroma and flavor.
