Martin's Roggenbier Recipe Kit

Make taproom-quality beer at home for pennies a pint. This Roggenbier recipe kit comes with every pre-measured ingredient you need to brew Martin's Roggenbier, a 5-gallon all-grain batch, from grain to glass. Roggenbier is a Bavarian rye beer, a relic of the era before rye was reserved by law for bakers and kept out of the brewhouse. It is essentially a dunkelweizen built on rye instead of wheat, and the grain leaves a clear mark: a dry, bready spiciness and a fuller, almost slick body. The beer pours a hazy reddish brown and pairs that rye character with the banana and clove notes of a weizen yeast. It is medium in strength and only lightly bitter, an old-country style that rewards drinkers who like their bread beers earthy.
