The Original Schlenkerla Lentbeer is an unfiltered smokebeer, brewed in accordance with the Bavarian Purity Law of 1516. Bottom-fermenting yeast gives the reddish brown lentbeer a natural cloudiness. Its smoky aroma is already noticeable in the smell, combined with a fine hoppy note. In the drink the fullbodied, highly drinkable lentbeer shows its strong malty flavour, rounded up with the smokey taste and a light bitterness. Due to the nourishing yeast, the Original Schlenkerla Lentbeer has the "Brotzeit already included" (German word for afternoon snack).

Mahogany brown colour with thin head. Deep malty taste with some dried fruits too. Lots of smokiness but the body holds up to it.

Clear ruby/brown beer, thick frothy off-white head. Strong smokey, umami smell to it. Flavour follows suit. A mixture of sweet malt and toasty malts, loads of smoke, an almost meaty, bacony flavour that comes through with the sweetness. This lingers with a drier, smoky quality to the finish. Very decent.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours mostly red-brown with a sturdy, frothy beige head. Medium sweet flavour with rich, vibrant smoked ham, toasted honey, biscuits, bread, earth, some leafy hops. Medium bodied with active, massaging carbonation. Sweet finish, more strong and lingering smoke, candied ham, burnt caramel, mild leafy bitterness, toasted grains. Great stuff.

Tap at the Euston Tap. Clear, light golden-brown with a soft head. Mild dark, smoked malts on the nose, slight minerals. Pretty sweet flavor, some brown sugar, glazed ham, smokey malts, light grass. Light to medium in body with average carbonation. Smokey finish with lingering notes of honey-glazed ham. This beer is SO good.
