Die unfiltrierte Jahrgangsversion vom Urbock. Speziell abgefüllt und für 4 Jahre in den Felsenkellern unter dem Stephansberg gelagert.
Allgemeines zum Urbock: Der Herbst ist Starkbierzeit in Bamberg und im Schlenkerla. Nach alter Tradition wird dazu bereits im Sommer der Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier - Urbock eingebraut. Nach dem Sud in alten Kupferkesseln reift er monatelang in den historischen Stollen unter dem Stefansberg. Durch den höheren Malzgehalt und die längere Reifung ist der Urbock noch vollmundiger als das klassische Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier und somit ein ganz besonderer Genuß für die kühlere Jahreszeit.

0,5l bottle at gfs place courtesy of Saeglopur, big thanks. Vintage 2016. No BB date. brown color, small tan head. smells rather smoked, oak, schwarzwaelder schinken, hints of peat, earthy, spices, nice smell. full body, light carbonation. tastes earthy, light cocoa, toffee, some smoke, light sweetness, bit roasty, hints of coffee, schwarzwaelder schinken again, spices, some oak. finishes lightly sweet and subtle roasty with notes of toffee, light bitter chocolate and some schwarzwaelder schinken. Very nice one, smoke and roasty notes do not blend super well together for me, but overall very nice one.

500 ml bottle from Schlenkerla webshop, vintage 2016. Dark copper-brown, hazy body, with a medium, fluffy, lacing, dark beige head. Aroma of smoke, bacon, wood, dark chocolate, toffee, dark bread, some toast. Tases very lovely, quite similar, while fuller, with a creamy chocolate body, subtle hops. Medium, oily mouthfeel, with an average carbonation. Finishes smokey, roasty, wooden, toasty, slightly sweet, with dark chocolate, some toffee, some dark bread. Very tasty! The nose is quite similar to the regular Urbock. The taste, while still very smokey and wooden, has a lovely, creamy chocolate character, almost like a Barley Wine. Therefore it drinks quite heavy for the ABV, which fits though. Score: 8 / 4 / 9 / 4 / 17

Cremig malziger Beginn. Viel Rauch, Schinken, feine Herbe, erkennbare Oxidation. Rauchig bleibend, trocken, nicht unbedingt besser als die filtrierte Version. Dennoch natürlich lecker! 11/12/11/12/12/12

2016 bottle. Hazy brown color with beige head. Aroma is wood, ash, moldy cellar. Taste is typical schlenkerla, also old and umami, not too much autolysis, but a bit. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Not as good as it could be.

0.5 l bottle from the brewery's web shop, 2016 vintage. Clear, very dark ruby with a thin, frothy, stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, fairly smoky, a bit fruity and a little oxidized aroma of smoked ham, molasses, raisins, caramel and prunes. Quite sweet, malty, rather smoky, gently fruity and slightly oxidized taste of smoked ham, molasses, caramel, raisins, prunes and hints of licorice, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter, gently smoky and quite oxidized finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty, harmonious and well-balanced Schlenkerla goodness, but the oxidization is quite noticeable. I'd prefer a fresh one, to be honest.
