Pale copper, unclear. Its off-white cover appears lacy. It seems that they chose their fantastic märzen as the base beer, so this could only turn out excellent. Indeed, it is strongly toasty, perfumey, fruity (apricot)... and pear-like malts. In the nose, the smokiness remains gentle, while in mouth it grows a woody, earthy feel that complements the biscuitiness. Neglectable hops and the mildest hint at acidity means that the malts possess the whole floor and their talents are wide enough to make good use of that space. Leathery, toasty, rye-like evolution on a sweet plateau of moderate smoke. A fun and clean offering.

Aug 27, 2008 An tap at the brewpub, several times in 2006. Rich smoked malt, slightly less smoky than in Bamberg, but very drinkable. great balance, very drinkable. Great with the sauer braten or the bratwurst.

Jul 29, 2008 Tap @ the brewpub, Vienna. Pours hazy dark brown with a creamy beaige head with laces. Aroma is smoked and slighly roasted. It is soft and creamy and the smoke is strong in the beginning and then you can taste the roasted malt that stays in the aftertaste also - I actually like this - and I am not a Rauchbier girl :o)

Jul 13, 2008 Tap @ the brewpub, Vienna.
Pours deep brown with a nice, medium, creamy, light-bwige head. Aroma has a little earthiness, quite a lot of smoke and lightly roasted. Fine, light mouthfeel. Flavour is softly smoky - very well-balanced. Quite malty sweet, some sugary notes. Good aftertaste, with pleasant smoke and roasted caramel. A positive surprise.

Jun 30, 2008 Fad på brewpubben. Superlækker røgøl, den bedste jeg har fået.
Alt klapper, malt, røg, humle og så er der ikke den der eftersmag af ålerøget spegepølse eller fisk. god mundfylde.
