Bambergs Spezialität als helle Sonderedition
Gebraut mit einem helleren Schlenkerla Rauchmalz, das wie beim klassischen Märzen über offenem Buchenholz geräuchert wird. So erhält das Bier eine leuchtende Bernsteinfärbung und das typische Aroma der Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbiere, das Liebhaber in aller Welt so schätzen. Im Geschmack ist es etwas sanfter als das klassische Märzen, mit trotzdem sehr deutlich ausgeprägtem Raucharoma.

Bottle shared thanks to sjogro. Slight hazy amber. Huge bacon, sweet malts, prunes, caramel, diacetyl, soft mineral. It's very smoky and meaty, but the underlying beer is also quite pleasant, fruity and crisp and not too sweet. Medium bodied, crisp finish. Not bad.

Bottle courtesy of Jonas, cheers Jonas! Consumed at Mum and Keith's, Kempsey nr Worcester, Sunday 19th October 2025 after a drive from Spond, Herefordshire. Pours hazy mid amber with a mid sized white head that soon departed. Nice in the mouth, smokey, fruity and with a nice tang. Nice woodiness, smokey with a little meaty edge, notably a bacon nose and light bacon touch in the mouth. Very good but slightly preferred the Grodsiskie.

Bottle from Westhill Service Station, I think... It pours clear chestnut brown with a lasting, fluffy, the yellowy - white head. The aroma is smooth, bitter - sweet, lovely rich smoked, smoked meats, smokey bacon crisps, honey glazed ham, touch of toffee, brown bread and smoked oak. The taste is rich smoked upfront, smooth, charred oak, smoked meats, bitter - sweet character throughout, cola cooked gammon, brown bread, touch of malt loaf, bonfire embers, bitterness lingers throughout, touch of tannin and toasty spice. Finish is bitter - sweet with smooth, lingering smoke. Great. I am beginning to think these guys know how to make smoked beers.... 🫠

500ml bottle online from Rad Beer. Pours clear amber with a tight head of pale tan foam. Sweet malts, caramel, smokey bacon, frazzles. Light sweet & light to moderate bitterness. Super clean. Medium body with fine carbonation. Plenty smokey but it's got great balance. Magnificent.
