Taste & Character

Where It Shines

This malt is ideal for styles such as Rye IPAs, Roggenbiers, and other specialty ales where rye’s signature spice complements hop and malt character. It adds depth and complexity to modern craft recipes, offering a unique counterbalance to sweet or fruity elements.

Role in the Brewhouse

Rye malt enhances body and mouthfeel, producing a fuller, more rounded beer. Its higher beta-glucan content compared to barley can increase mash viscosity, making it useful for improving texture but sometimes requiring careful lautering practices. Use it to bring a chewy richness and a spicy edge to your grain bill.

Brewer’s Guidance

Add Gambrinus Rye Malt at rates of 5–20% of the grist for noticeable rye flavor and mouthfeel, or in smaller amounts to impart subtle spice. Pair with robust hops for Rye IPAs or with darker malts for complex rye-forward ales. Adjust lautering techniques if using in higher percentages.
