BEER! Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Märzen - 5.1% - Smokey enough for you!?

in #beer7 years ago

I picked this bad boy up from our local specialist in sinful stock.
HOE-LEE-CRAP this is smokey! "Intense" is and understatement. I had this one after dinner and I felt like I was eating another meal!

Smell: SMOKE!
Taste: SMOKE!
Colour: Dark, kinda like SMOKE!

I don't think I've had a Märzen before but this one has prompted me to try more. This was a kicker!

It wasn't cheap but it was worth the experience. And I can't resist a really cool-looking bottle!

More anon.

As the names says Rauchbier- Smokebeer, have never tried, it comes from area in South East of Germany. After your description I think I also do not need to taste it.

Oh. That makes sense. What does the rest of the front label say?
Haha! If you want the non-alcoholic version, you could eat a piece of charcoal. It will taste similar.
