Helles Schlenkerla Lager recieves its subtle smokiness through bottom fermentation with yeast from Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier. Regular Helles Lager is clear and yeastless due to the filtration before bottling.
This specially unfiltered edition however retains the natural haziness and the yeast with its fresh and smoky character. A rare and special treat, not only for smokebeer lovers.

Gold with a foamy white head. Strange to drink a Schlenkerla without the usual dose of woodsmoke. Very much a Landbier aroma: grassy and herbal with touches of butter and honey. Maybe a faint whiff of smoke, or maybe my imagination. Taste is bitter with a honey-like sweetness underneath. The bitterness takes a mild citric twist at the end. Wonderfully chewy for such a “light” beer, smooth, refreshing. Could drink this all day.

Édition spéciale ‘’unfiltered’’ en importation – Merci à Phil. Céréales et léger fumé au nez. Mousse généreuse et crémeuse. Liquide doré clair, très subtilement voilé et fortement effervescent. Céréalière en entrée de bouche avec de doux accents de fumé, une carbonatation dans le tapis, une touche miellée fruitée et une finale légèrement herbacée mais surtout épicée. L’équilibre et la complexité des saveurs est remarquable. Le corps est moelleux mais beaucoup moins à cause de la très haute carbonatation. Remarquable lager avec le léger fumé qui rehausse l’ensemble des saveurs. Hautement appréciée. O:7.14 V:4.87 G:8.1 C:4.05 G:16.52 T:40.68 Special edition ''unfiltered'' in import – Thanks to Phil. Aroma is cereal and slightly smoky Generous and creamy foam. Light golden liquid, very subtly veiled and strongly effervescent. Cereal on the palate with sweet accents, light smoke, carbonation in the carpet, a fruity honeyed touch and a slightly herbaceous but above all spicy finish. The balance and complexity of the flavors is remarkable. The body is mellow but much less so because of the very high carbonation. Remarkable lager with the light smokyness that enhances the overall flavors. Highly appreciated.

50cl bottle from Systembolaget, Eskilstuna. Pours slightly hazy golden with a decent, white head. Grainy and grassy at first, then subtle notes of smoke , some slightly fruity notes too. Moderate sweet with mild, but pleasant flavours and a quite noticeable, but balanced bitterness. Tasty and enjoyable.

Bottle. A hazy golden colored beer with a dense two-finger white head. Nice lacing. Nice biscuity, bready maltyness and a pleasant fruityness in the aroma. There's a faint ham-like smoke touch too. Grass, pine and pepper. It's full-bodied, impressive considering the ABV, and nicely carbonated, with a decent bitterness. Piney and peppery, with a grassy touch and a good maltyness. As in the aroma, a faint smoke touch too. Medium length finish. A really nice lager indeed. 240807

Bottle, thanks Jonas! Golden, slightly hazy. Full summer hay, bit sour nose, ever so slight smoke/burned hay. Taste is full, chewy, crunchy, crisp, grainy. Nice bitter hoppy aftertaste, bit soapy, yeast, tad buttery mouthfeel. Good balance. Very drinkable. Cute. Perfect for #800.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a hazy golden with a rich and frothy, white head leaving some lacework. Sweet, malty and slightly flowery nose - no real smokiness to be detected. Medium body, sweet, clean maltiness with only a very, very faint hint of smoke. A bitterness that reveals itself quite late. A lovely Zwickel - but smoked not so much. 010224
