Mar 22, 2007 bottle - As soon as I opened this beer, the aroma of smoked sausage hit me. It’s really strong. It pours a dark brown color with a medium sized head that lingers awhile. The flavor continues with the strong smoked sausage. There’s some malt flavors in there, but it’s hard to taste much past all the smoke. This is an interesting beer, but rating a bit higher than I expected as I really don’t feel that its flavors are balanced or complex. The smoke completely dominates it.

Mar 22, 2007 Reddish brown with a collapsing tan head. Huge aroma of bacon and smoke. The smoky taste is here somewhat balanced by the malt and a fair amount of sweetness followed by a moderately bitter finish. Better balanced than the Marzen I thought. Very nice. Drink cold.

Mar 21, 2007 Bottle. Amber-brown pour with a light tan head. Aroma of smoke and bacon. Light malt and a bunch of smoke comes through in the flavor. Light body, smokey and a bit ashy throughout...clean finiah.

Mar 13, 2007 Dark brown beer. The aroma is complex beachwoodsmoke with malt sneaking up.
In the flavour the smoke is dominating, but the bock sweetness does it’s job leaving a full and balanced finish. It ends sweet and nice with the bitterness coming through.

Same smoky aroma shared with the other Schlenkerla rauchbiers but much more full flavoured. Vastly flavoured - so much bock that the smoky, almost tarry, taste does not overpower the tongue. This isn’t just bacon - you can tell it’s been fried in butter - so it must be good for you!

Mar 4, 2007 Draught from Partyfass. Lovely smoky aroma, salty salami smokiness. Clear, very dark brown colour. Creamy, quite stable, light brown head. Quite sweet flavour with some salami. Low carbonation and a very nice creamy mouthfeel. Yummy.
