Commercial Description:
At Terrapin we enjoy our rye and our smoke...beers. Volume 2 in the "Side Project" series combines a Rogenbier and a Rauchbier, two German classics. Roggen means rye, Rauch means smoke, and bier means beer. We love them all! Introducing Terrapin’s Roggenrauchbier. With a slight hint of spice from the rye malt and a pleasant overtone from the smoked malt this beer has two great tastes that taste great together.

Copper pour, good clarity, with a smooth light beige head. Soft smoked nose, lots of caramel and rye fruitiness throughout. Good balance and flavor all enhanced by a softer smoked malt complexity. Sessionable and delicious.

Light brown pour with a slight white head and lace. Light caramel and smoke on the nose. Roasted malt flavor and light malt sweetness. Good carbonation with light to medium palate. Pretty solid offering.

Thank you Dr. Jay for this bomber, which I rapidly devoured. I like rye, which gave it an edge. The smoke was significantly there - it was nice but it was a bit too much. Nice head. The smoke did not generate too much an aroma. Medium plus mouthfeel.

Bottle shared by wolf. Dark brown in color, decent head. The nose was smokey... The taste was smoke, coffee, roasted malts and a touch of sweetness. I enjoyed this beer, it was very easy to drink. Thanks wolf for sharing this one.

Bottle picked up from Knightly Spirits. Pours out a moderate hue of brown with a moderate slightly off white head. Smoky/sweet malts come through on the aroma. Taste is of sweet malts, come caramel and some other sweetness going on in there. Smoke was present in the taste, but I was looking for a little bit more. Went very well with BBQ pulled pork. Solid

Bottle from Cock and Bull. Poured clear dark brown color with an average frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate smoke malty and hop aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Medium bittersweet smoke flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. My expectation where exceeded.

A 22-oz bomber, shared by AtlBeerDog at Surly D-Day. Pours a semi-clear brownish amber brew with a thick beige head that has a slow dissipation with a creamy film top. Aroma of roasted and smoked caramel malt, a touch of pork, dry rye malts, soem citrus hops and a touch of chocolate. Taste is medium bodied, very light carbonation with flavors of smoked rye and caramel malts, some toffee, chocolate and smoked wood. Finish continues the smoked multi-grain malt aftertaste with a mild bitterness that quickly disappears.

Bottle poured into a pint glass produced a finger worth of tan colored head that turned into a thin lace. The wonderful amber brown color of this brew looks awesome in the light Great smoky aromas are present along with a nice light rye smell. Flavors are light, bacon and rye toast are good descriptors for these flavors. The mouthfeel is medium with ample carbonation making this brew very easy to drink
