500 ml bottle. Deep brown color with red highlights, tan head. Sweet smoky aroma. Bitter smoky flavor with a long finish and hints of alcohol. Full body, medium-light carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel. A pleasant smoked beer, but definitely not sessionable.

Sötét vörösesbarna színe és piszkos sárga habja van.Illata enyhén füstös,pörkölt malátás,kellemes.Ízében még jobban kijön a harapható füst,mint egy jó Parenyicában.Ezen kívül szépen érezni a maláta gyümölcsösségét és egy kis pörkölt aromát is.Komplex,közepesen testes és kellemesen melegít az alkohol is.Különlegesség!Jóféle füstölt disznóságokhoz kiváló kísérő!

Pours dark brown with reddish hues. Aroma of smoke and beech wood. Taste is of wood, smoke, cured meats, and molasses. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with lively carbonation.

500 ml bottle. Finland. Excellent. Better than Märzen version of Schlenkerla Rauchbier. Pure smoked ham flavour. I would say Rauchbier at best. Great!

This has the highest ABV of all Schlenkerla brews. I used this one in a marinade for a huge filet of Scottish Atlantic Salmon on Christmas 2008. Very dark reddish brown hue, thick and creamy eggshell colored head. Very attractive lacing. Nice smooth aroma of smoked meats, sweet malts. Heavy smoke, big smoked malt aroma. It is not for he weak. Rich malt flavor, nice smoke on the sides of the palate. It is like drinking sweetened bacon. Bonerific. Medium bodied. Finishes with some more smoke and a balancing hop character. Prost.

Wow, what a beer! Deep colored appearance, fine and stable lacing tan head. Yes, it has a barbeque aroma with a sweet malt character, some liqueric ham perfume. The taste is complex too, around a liquid smoked ham or bacon with sweet malt and roasted malt. In the finish i can feel the touch of the wooden cask. It is very exciting beer! I hope the tradition of the smoked beers will never die!

Pours adeep brown with nice tan, foamy head. Nose is barbeque smoke with a touch of molasses and malt underneath. Tastes like Texas barbeque in liquid form, roasted malt, and possibly some brown sugar. Medium carbonation, just about right. Very good brew, is not going to be for everyone but definitely worth a try.

This one is different. Smoky as hell, like eating a smoked ham sandwich...in liquid form. Medium bodied with significant carbonation. They say you love it or you hate it, but I am in the "it is decent" camp.
