SmokyAles and lagers with flavours ranging from a wisp of smoke to a roaring campfire



Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier

Germany, 5.1% alc./vol.
Style: Smoked Beer
The If there were ever a beer that could divide households, this is the one. Some folks love the fact that its intense aroma and taste give it an unmistakable flavour of a big ol' smoked ham, while others feel like some desperate accountant salvaged a batch after the brewery burned to the ground. The barley malt used in this lager is smoked over a beechwood fire prior to brewing, and that's the dominant taste throughout. Try it and see if you're a fan or a foe.
