From the Bottle at RBESG Harlequin, Sheffield 19/07/2009 Smoked aroma. White head. Golden coloured and smooth on the palate with a smoky bacon flavour. Crisp and very dry in the finish.

Bottled (BB 12/2009)
Golden, slighlty amber color, small white head. Grainy, a bit buttery aroma, not much smokey. Sweetish malty flavor, decent body, smoked ham (Bamberg smoke malts) flavor. Reasonably balanced and drinkable, although not really exiciting smoked beer.

Bottle from Nightfall, thanks! Golden color. Smoked cheese aroma with beechwood. Milky flavor, lightly smoked, with beechwood and smoked cheese, and hints of peach and apple. Not in any way comparable with the great Bamberg beers, but this is a very pleasant lager!

A Mes rate. Bottle at Chris O’s pre NYE tasting. Pale amber with a decent off white head. A straight forward smoky lager with a little extra smoke than you would expect. Straight forward but decent stuff. Nice and clean and drinkable.

Grand Tasting @ The Harlequin, Sheffield.
Pours clear dark golden with a fine, small, creamy, off-white head. Aroma is mildly smoky, some malty sweetness. Low, prickly carbonation, just a wee bit thin. Flavour is nicely smoky, some sweetness and malts. Okay beer (perhaps a tad too sweet).

Bottle at chris o’s teabag for 2009 tasting. Alround rating: Just a great clean smoked lager, its a little subtle in the smoke as its mainly in the aroma, but i ended up drinking a whole bottle of the stuff at a tasting of 70ish beers.

courtesy of Oliver Bieri - clear reddish-amber colour under a solid pale beige foam; fair aroma of smoked bacon; medium-bodied, some tartness and a light bitterness, quite dry smokey aftertaste of cold ashes - good but rather one-dimensional
