Rauchbier Tasting in Berlin
Details
Hopfen & Malz and the Berlin Craft Beer group present a very special tasting in Berlin in January: Rauchbier.
12 Smoked Beers will be tasted on one Sunday afternoon.
These beers, traditional to Upper Franconia, have long been neglected or treated as a curiosity, although the use of smoked malt goes back for centuries.
With a renewed interest in beer styles, Hopfen & Malz and Berlin Craft Beer wish to present some beers from this authentic German brewing heritage. What better way to explore smoked beers than to try a broad flight of 12 beers with other beer enthusiasts from around the world.
The Vagabund Brewery have kindly allowed us to host this event in their bar.
