Pours a dark mahoganey with a tan head. Aroma and taste both very smokey...smells and taste could be described as a camp fire or smoked meats. Goes great with smoked gouda and cheddar. I suspect it would pair well with any smoked cheese or meat. Very good smoked beer.

Pours a deep reddish-brown with a substantial off-white head that lingers. Aroma is hickory smoke and hop flowers. Smokey taste of buttery caramel sweetness, cheddar cheese, and hop bittereness. Smooth and delicious. Obviously good with smoked meats and cheeses. Outstanding.

from a 500 ml bottle and draft from the pub in Bamberg. Big smooth smoke aroma and flavor along with a beer that can hold its own with it. A great combination of beer and smoked malt. A classic.

Clear mahogany with a khaki head. Huge, strong smell of smoked meat, cheese, pepperoni. Light/medium body. Big smoked meat/pepperoni/black pepper/jerky spice flavors with a hint of lightly sweet pale malt in the finish. Now, if we only had some smoked peppers in here....A liquid Philly Cheese sandwich. Love it

Smells mesquite. Flavor of pig roast and smoke from campfire wood, So good and a true mans brew.

Had this several times in the past but found it again recently at State Line Liquors, your welcome afire. Dark brown pour with small tan head. Really pleasant hickory-bacon like wood smoke aroma. Carries into the pallet giving a nice smokey body and full flavor. Slight bitterness but smooth and pleasant. Really, just an awesome smoked beer.

bottle shared with me by The_Captain. thanks Mark. pours a medium brown color with a thin tan head. smells strongly of burning wood, similar to walking by a house that has a wood stove in the middle of winter. lots of wood smoke in the flavor as well as a thin strand of malt that it is all standing on top of. finishes bitter and smoky. it is the first rauchbier that I have ever had and feels like a good introduction to the style.

While hosting a beer and cheese tasting I was served a deliciously hammy oak-smoked cheddar. Only one beer to try with this I thought, and immediately ordered a bottle of Aecht Mäzen. It was just impossible to tell where the beer ended and the cheese began, and that just about says it all for me
