Deep brown colour, beige foam. Nose of smoked malts, caramel, some toast, bacon, light irony. When warming up it became a very well balanced Rauchbier. Great! More subtle than the Eiche Doppelbock.

Bottled. Ambery brown colour with a mediumsized off-white head, that leaves some lace. Aroma is smoked wood, mild meaty notes along with some toasted and caramelly notes. Flavour is smoked wood, some tobacco, caramel and mild toasted and herbal notes.

Tap at HopDog. Dark brown. Smell is lovely smoke, more intense than the normal one. Also malt and bacon. Taste is soft and beautifully balanced, very light. Veeeeery drinkable.

Bottle, huge thanks Fil & Ryan for sharing! Coppery red clear body, beige head. Creamy smokey aroma, loads of dried fruit underneath. Creamy taste, lighter dry fruit notes, maybe peat, bacon notes, smoked prunes somehow. Quite nice, quality stuff by all means.

500ml bottle @Luppolo Station (Rome) with ippopotamo36. Miele di castagno, intensa, schiuma bianca leggera e poco persistente. Al naso note di malto, speck affumicato, erbaceo. In bocca è maltata all'attacco, con affumicatura media bilanciata e taglio amaro finale. Corpo medio, carbonazione media. Ottima.

Bottle @Luppolo Station in Rome-Italy, thanks Mortlach. Pours a clear amber color with an irregular ivory gassy foam. Nose: honey and Smokey, speck. Mouth is perfectly clean, full while mirroring the nose character. The finish is sparkling and bitter-ish.

500ml bottle. Opalescent, dark ruby colour with small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, off-white to beige head. Smoky and caramel malty aroma, notes of smoked ham, beechwood ashes, dark caramel, whiffs of grilled plum. Taste is smoky and caramel malty, notes of smoked ham, dark caramel, beechwood ashes, some leather, sticking-plaster, a touch of grilled plum, dark honey. Minimally oily, watery texture, smooth, soft, simultaneously minimally dry and minimally cloying palate, fine and soft, mildly prickly carbonation. Rich, intense and complex, thereby well balanced, harmonious - very (very!) close to Schlenkerla's legendary brews.

On tap at HopDog, clean dark crystal brown. Beautiful rounded complex nose with smoke, molasses, and a bit of roasted malt. The flavor is just a perfect balanced triad of smoke, caramel, and earthy hop bitterness. Daaamn is this one amazing beer!
