Just drank my first Rauchbier - an Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier - Marzen variety. I have an Urbock variety sitting in the fridge for another day. Picked both up at the local packie (Yankee Spirits).
Wow, was it smokey. And very very good. It went perfect with the slow roasted brisket I made for dinner. I can definitely see drinking this during BBQs in the summer. I may just need to brew myself up a small batch of this stuff.
If you like smokey foods and beverages (i.e. Islay scotch, Lapsang souchong tea), you'll like this.
