Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier

An extremely unusual wheat beer from the world heritage city of Bamberg

Schlenkerla Rauchweizen is a wheat beer with a delicate smoky flavor It is brewed in the traditional Bavarian way with barley and wheat malt A special feature is the barley malt used: For the typical and world-famous smoked beer flavor of Schlenkerla beers, the malt is smoked in the brewery's own malthouse in an ancient process over beech chips This very special ingredient gives the wheat beer its wonderfully smoky flavor and makes it a unique wheat beer specialty

The multi-award-winning beer presents itself in a cloudy hazelnut brown in the glass and is refined by a stately beige head A fine aroma of smoked meat is combined with strong malt, fresh banana bread and a hint of clove in the nose The first taste follows the olfactory first impression on the foot: Strong in body and with a silky smooth consistency, the smoked wheat caresses the palate Strong notes of roasted malt and spicy yeast set the tone, creamy banana, clove, vanilla and melt-in-the-mouth chocolate provide harmonious undertones A hint of bacon gives the well-rounded blend an interesting kick The finish is smooth and malty: Roasted aromas, a soft smoky flavor and the taste of oven-fresh banana bread linger on the tongue for a long time and fuel the desire for a second bottle

This Bamberg classic is a must-try!
