500ml bottle bought online from Beer Ship.

It pours a hazy orange..err...closer to a honey colour. Good 1" head of foam that leaves some impressive lacing.

It has quite the spicy smell. And malty. And sweet. And earthy. A few things going on here and I like.

Oh yeah, that's what Roggenbier is all about....a distinct rye flavour.(I had to check Beer Styles as this is my first of the style) Some sweetness in the flavour, kind of honey like, that pretty much gets overwhelmed with the spicy rye notes making the malt presence more of an earthy type.

More sips in and I'm settling in to a tasty treat. Roggenbiers now have me, intrigued.

Edit: The bottle has this on the label: 41901120. ?
