Bottle. Misted gold, large white head lasts well. Floral and lightly smoky aroma with crackers. Light bodied, highly carbonated. A little richness to the crackery malt is nice and impressive for <3%. Soft smoke, light bitterness. Refreshing.

Nalane do szklaneczki zamowionej przez wujka z Essen w browarze Heller Brau wraz z 10 piwami Marzen. Paczka przeslana pod same drzwi pare ladnych lat temu. Ogromne dzieki i pozdrawiam. Typowy aromat klasyczny i nie zmienny od lat. Wedzonka, dym, torf itp. ciemno herbaciana barwa ze spora piana i trwala. Smaczne, nie za slodowe, chmielnosc wyczuwalna. Edycja specjalna, specjalnie to ja kazde piwa schlenkerli lubie jak i caly stary Bamberg.

Pours a clear lighter blonde. Medium sized white head of high-average stability. Scent is quite pronounced, smokey, yet fresh, wheat, not too intense on the smoke (though definately very clear! ) , inviting thather than revolting (what I do personally have with rauchbier) . Taste is sharp, bit bitter, explosive smokeyness-with-wheat, never to intense on the smoke for me, (EVEN for me) . i really like the balance here. on paper, this would not be my type of beer at all, but I actually enjoy it ! Bitter, wheat, smokey finish. Drinkable like a lager. This is a pretty big surprise !

Amber body, with a big, beige head.
Aroma of smoked wood, bread, toffee, subtle fruits. Tastes similar, with more dry smoke, bacon.
Medium mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation. Finishes smokey, wooden, dry, slightly sweet, bready.

Beatiful! Quite dark for a "Helles Märzen", but aroma-wise it makes sense, pretty dry, with a lighter body. Distinct and intense smoke notes, but still perfectly balanced. Another amazing Schlenkerla I could drink all day!
