Following century old recipes all malts made at the Schlenkerla brewery are dried by wood fire. While for the classic Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier traditionally beech has been ? and still is ? used, the malt for Schlenkerla Oak Smoke is kilned with oak wood. The resulting Oak Smoke Malt has a smoother and more multi layered smoky note than the intensely aromatic Beech Smoke Malt. The hence complex smokiness in Schlenkerla Oak Smoke is paired with the multifaceted bitterness of finest Hallertau aroma hops. With 8% alcohol and amber color it matures for months in the deep brewery cellars underneath Bamberg into a special treat for smoke beer lovers for Christmas.

Pours clear amber color with one finger of frothy off-white head, good retention. Oakwood smoke, nagon aroma. Smoked, woody, nutty, light honey note, very rich flavor. Gentle earthy note. Dry finish.

50 cl. bottle @ home, bought online @ Mr. Hop.
Clear brown with a white head. Sweet taste with a woody smokey finish. Lots of oak and character. Great beer.

Dass man bei einen Schlenkerla- Bier die volle Dröhnung Rauchigkeit 🚬 und Holzigkeit🪵erwarten kann, war mir klar, aber dass dies so extrem ist, habe ich nicht gedacht.
Das Räucherschinken-Aroma 🍖durchzieht den ganzen Körper und lässt wenig Platz für andere. Ein bisschen versucht ein Stich alkoholreicher Kirschlikör durchzukommen, dieser gibt aber bald auf. Zum Schloss würzt etwas Toffee und Torf den Abgang.
Ein Bier mit Charakter, bei dem man wirklich ein großer Rauchbierfreund sein muss.

Bottle. Medium amberish copper color with a small head. Really nice smoked flavor better than most smoked beers. Taste is wonderfully smooth and mild but still great smoked flavor

Bottled. Pours dark ruby colour with quickly disappearing head. Prominent smoky and slighter sweet notes in aroma and taste with sweet finish. Not too heavy bodied yet isn’t that easily drinkable, softly carbonated. A beer to my liking.

07/2022 Aromat niewyraźny trochę taki przyprawowy, słodowy Beżowa piana, długo się utrzymuje, kolor mocnej herbaty, klarowne. Smak słodowy, melanoidyny, ciemne pieczywo. Słodkie dość, gorzkie średnio. Ciało średnie, gładkie, nagazowanie średnie, finisz mało wyraźny, alkohol niewyczuwalny. Ogólnie piwo jak piwo mocny lagier, piłem lepsze koźlaki, ale on nie jest zły
