Description
English rye kilned gently enough to keep it pale, and it brings the dry, peppery, herbal edge that makes a rye ale or a rye saison what it is. Rye has no husk and a viscous wort, so watch the lauter and think about rice hulls once it climbs past a fifth. Dingemans publish no inclusion rate for it at all, leaving that to the style, so the ceiling here is ours rather than theirs.
