This is the second collab of the rauchbock between these two breweries, with substantially different specs. It's also a hell of a lot better, too. Amber, light brown, lots of smoke on the nose, rich smokey, sugary malts. Damn... one of the best rauchbocks I’ve had in North America. Hope I can revisit this one.

Golden-brown. Thin head. Mellow smoke nose, bigger smoke taste. Has a caramelly body - the malts lack the depth and complexity of a good lager - but at least the smoke is abundant and tasty.

On tap at the brewery. Okay darker copper body and a titch of head, heavy smoke on the nose. A little leathery if I do say so. Flavour is big sweet smoke and grain, all a little artificial. Mouthfeel is okay but a bit too overpowered. Needs some natural elements, this feels very much like a paint by numbers attempt.
