Draught @ Spezial. Clear dark amber colour with small head. The flavour is smokey and malty, but quite mild. Taste is really light.

Draft @ the Spezial Brewery in Bamberg. Poured very dark copper, almost black with a big thick head. Huge nose of smoked malts with a lot of fruit aromas. Flaver is powerful and the mouthfeel is rich.

At the brewery tap Creamy, off-white head. Almost no lace. Sligtly hazy, golden body. A fresh aroma of flowers, orange, lemonade, ... There’s a medicine, called lycomucil, that smells like. Very well balanced fruity flavour. Lightly sweet, moderately bitter.

Draught at the brewery Creamy, off-white head. Virtually no lace. Clear, amber body. Aroma of fine malts, smoke, smoked bacon - nice sophisticated. Lightly sweet, lightly bitter flavour. This is a nice rauchbier, the smoke is very well balanced with the rest of the beer.

Bottle: Clear amber coloured, smaller, fluffy off-white head; sweetish fruity nose with caramel malts, distinctive aroma of dry, smoked wood; robust sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; bitter-sweet finish becoming rather dry and smoked in the aftertaste. A very pleasant, hearty, complex Rauchbier !

Bottle: firm off-white head, hazy, amber coloured, nearly "normal" strong fruity nose: bananas, lemons and cloves, too, smoke barely detectable; astonishingly fresh fruity (citrousy) flavour; finish fruity again with delicate hints of smoke in the aftertaste; medium bodied. A decent, quite fresh and tasty Weizen !

Clean amber color; compact head. Mild aroma of caramel and smoke. The mouthfeel is very dry, the body is lean; caramel flavor, with a delicate smoke presence; correct bitterness.
Easy beer, but well balanced.

Amber color; creamy head. It has a very nice smoked aroma. Some caramel flavor, quite dry, with nice smokey touch; the final is a bit metallic. Good, but I would appreciate more body and sweetness.
2006-03-13, draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, 7-5-7-4-14=37
Clean amber color; thick creamy head, wonderful. Sweet smokey aroma. Simple body structure, with a good smokey character and quite nice aromatic hopping. Not my favorite (sweetness is missing) but good.
