Aug 3, 2008 Bottle shared by someone at the Shenandoah Beer Throwdown. Pours brown, with a medium beige head. Semi-malty aroma. Tastes more like some kind of scotch ale. I taste some caramel and chocolate, but there is NO smoke or meaty flavors that I would associate with a rauchbier.

Jul 29, 2008 Light smoke on the nose with some caramel malts, very soft and smooth. Pours a rich reddish amber with dense off white head. Smooth smokey flavors with sweet caramel malts with hints of molasses and a nice spiciness in the finish, the rye perhaps. A solid beer, but i could use a little more smoke.

Jul 29, 2008 The aroma is smokey but only a little, it is mostly mallty. The appearance is light brown with a nice head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall not my style.

Jul 28, 2008 Thanks to beerbill for sharing - clear copper beer - intense smoke and rye in the aroma suggests a powerful flavor, but it’s actually quite subtle - fairly creamy mouthfeel, but it is a little thin - mild smoke flavors work well with the lean malts - a little bit of caramel flavor - rye becomes present in the finish - not as impressive as the german-made ones, but pretty nice.

Jul 28, 2008 Bottle from JP’s in Sylva. Pours a dark amber with a thin head. Aroma is very malty, very sweet. A little bit of spice and a medium body. Flavor is full, its a good one to drink while eating.
