Een combinatie van een Helles Weizenbock en een rauchbier. Hierdoor ontstaat een mild fruitig bier met weizenelementen als banaan en kruidnagel en spekachtige rooktonen. Te vergelijken met fruit van de BBQ. De rooksmaak komt van de mout uit Duitsland die niet met hete lucht wordt geëest, maar met rook van beukenhout.
Naam
Jopen Witte Rook is het eerste officiële brouwsel (na het testbrouwsel Schwarze Hell) gebrouwen in de Jopenkerk Haarlem. Het eerste brouwsel van het nieuwe jaar is standaard Witte Rook. De naam verwijst naar de keuze van een nieuwe Paus. Als deze gekozen is, komt er witte rook uit de schoorsteen van het Vaticaan.

Slightly hazy light brown colour, white head. Aroma of smoke, malts, light honey, dried meat and apricot. Malty flavour, ash, smoked wheat, smoke, the kind you find in smoked ham cheese potato chips (hamka’s). Lots of carbo. Light sour finish, wheat, banana, sweet touches, light smoke, lingering ash.

Bottle. Brewed with Hallertau Mittelfrue, interesting. Same like the saphyr they brew with. Are they doing those de Molen-like typo’s on purpose? Hazy golden color, medium slight off-white head. Aroma of soft dry smoke, banana, hint of clove, some fruity hop. Nice combination of beechwood smoke and weizen. Quite dry in taste with again some dry smokeyness and banana. Finishes with the dry woody smoke. Could have used a little more sweetness/body, instead it finishes on the dry side. Overall the intensity of the smoke is medium and the smoke is more woody than bacon or peat-like, which I think is the best fit for a weizen-like style. Good beer.

A tapped wooden barrel atop the bar at Arends Nest. Hazy gold beer, little white head. Light palate. A little dry. Low carbonation. Sweetish malt - somewhat tripel like. Mellow smoke, clear and present but never overwhelming. Nicely judged! Finishes a tiny bit dry with a trace of bubblegum and some subtle wood. Alright - fresh pleasant drinking smoked beer.

On tap @ Arendsnest. Smoked hefeweizen, I thought it was a combination that wouldn’t work, but it did, and surprisingly well. All the aroma’s of a good hefeweizen: wheat, juicy fruit, some banana/clove/vanilla and then some smoke, not too strong but clearly present. Flavor is ever so slightly sweet, grainy, smoky. Medium bodied, that helped too. Dryish somewhat bitter finish. Very pleasant surprise.
