In the past, due to lack of hygiene, drinking water was usually polluted with illness-causing bacterias. Beer did not contain such pathogens, as it was boiled and hopped. Therefore, until the end of the 19th century, beer was the preferred daily beverage. To keep a clear head, Bamberg's brewers had a special brewing technique to make low-alcohol beer. Hoppy, mildly smoky and with less than 1,2% alcohol the unfiltered Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Hansla brings back this old Bamberg brewing tradition.

Dark golden colour with thin head. Plenty of smokey bacon in the aroma. Sweet malty taste backed up with subtle, almost savoury smokey notes.

500mL bottle, pours a clear copper with a medium white head. Aroma brings out peated smoke, bready malt, and some light mineraly notes. Flavour certainly has a decent peated character, but it does taste rather washed out due to the very low alcohol. For an (almost) non-alc, this is well-done, but obviously can't compete with their other rauchbiers.

Hazy murky amber. Aroma is some smoke copper wood caramel and wet grain. Taste is somewhat sour grain with smoke and almost no body. Pretty watery. Interesting and worth a try but only okayish.

14/5/2022. Bottle shared by SHIG, cheers. Pours clear dark amber with a frothy off-white head. Aroma is heavily smoked, meaty, bratwurst, frazzles, smoked cheese, stale ashtray. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Light body, watery, average carbonation. Not my favourite style, and particularly didn't appreciate this one.

Sample thanks to SHIG, cheers Shawn! Coppery orange amber colour, thin white rim and aroma of smoked meat, malt, caramel, woody. Taste is malt, smokey, meaty, with an orange note, and some tangy drying bitterness. Thin mouthfeel, light bodied, soft carbonation, lingering smoked dry bitter finish. Quite drinkable.
