Commercial Description:
Bishop Bob's Holy Smoke This beer is a Bamberg-style Rauchbier. The town of Bamberg in Germany originated the style of smoked beers. These beers are made with a dose of smoked barley. Our recipe relies on a light bock recipe for its base and contains about 20% imported smoked barley. The noble German hops are used to balance the taste into a unique beer drinking experience.

Mahogany pour with thin lace. Smells of smoke and spice. Smoke flavor, damp wood and roasty malt. Medium thin body.

On tap @ the brew pub: Pours a clear copper color with a light tan head. Aroma, smoky and malty. Flavor, smoky, peaty, some caramel, light chocolate hints, and some roasted notes, the smoke was quite well balanced.

On tap at Dragonmead. Deep red-brown body, dense cream head. Distinctive smoked peat aroma. Creamy, light, peaty body, emphasizing the smoked malts. If anything, this wasn’t brave enough with the smoked characteristics. It felt too watered down.

Draft... Clear, very dark, crimson lager with a small, creamy, khaki head. Hickory, campfire smoke aroma. Perfectly balanced flavor with lots of BBQ smoke. Low residual sweetness and light bitterness. Medium-bodied and thin with modest carbonation.

Tap @ D’mead. Black beer with no head. Smoke flavor like suggested in the name. Watery texture. Dragonmead has better selections before trying this one.
