On tap at the brewpub. Pours a dark cola color with a thick tan cap. Smell is smokey, bacon, peat, roast and malt. Smell is fairly thick. Taste starts with roast, caramel. The smoke is more in the middle and is not as harsh as the aroma. The body is light/medium and the beer is slippery with mild carbonation which is finely constructed. I was happily surprised as to the complex flavor and easy drinking nature of this beer.

Bottle. Dark brown beer with a small beige head. The aroma is wonderful, smokey wood. The taste is smoked kippers, wood and roasted malts. A sensation of burnt charcoal lingers on the lips and tongue. An excellent beer.

This beer pours a deep maroon, with a small off white head. The aroma is huge!! Huge notes of smoked sausage, smoked ham, bacon, charcoal, and roasted corn. Tasting notes include toffee, licorice and other medium malts, as well as barbecued sausage. This is a very unique beer, and I love it! This would go spectacular along with some summer bbq!

Botella de 50 cl. Color marrón oscuro, casi negro. Abundante espuma, duradera. Olor a ahumado por todos los sitios y en boca, más de lo mismo, ahumados...con un cuerpo excelente y un sabor único.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours dark copper with a lasting foamy head and a really great smokey scent. First sip is weird for a bit, metallic in taste. After aired in the wild for a while its definetly abit better. All tho i like rauchbier this on is not as its best at the moment. The smokiness of this one is legendary tho havent tasted another one with as great smoke flavoer as this one. This one i shall re-rate.

Intrigued by the particular type, I decided to try this beer, colour is amber red with good persistent creamy head, aroma is of smoked salmon, in mouth is light and drinkable in body, not very teasty, but the aftertaste are only smoked and persistent... Personal comment; For this beer one 50cl is exaggerated.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Dark brown witha a dirty white head. Smoke. Malt, wood, meat. Taste is light/medium bitter with a sticky mouthfeel, end is smokey and some bitterness.

Balanced. Nose is not too smokey as is the flavour. Just the right amount of smoke but keeping it easy to drink.

(Bottle) Smoked malt, an open fire with spicy sausage and smoked ham. Does that sound nice? Then you will love this beer!

500ml bottle from Drinkswell, Ripon. Clear brown-golden colour with a reddish tinge, thin biege head leaving some lacing and aroma of smokey wood, smoked meats & malt. Taste is smoked roast malt caramel & grain, bacon, nutty notes. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, fairly well balanced with a light bitterness through to the finish. Quite drinkable.
