CHÂTEAU SMOKED vs Weyermann Rauch (beechwood)

[KimJohansen]

Hi,

Has anyone tried both of these malts? Weyermann I know very well and I find it very mellow. How does the Belgian CHÂTEAU SMOKED compare to it?

Update: My Rauchbier turned out very well using a mix of BestMalz and CHÂTEAU. Can highly recommend it if fresh as a substitute to the mellow Weyermann.

CHÂTEAU SMOKED is a very nice malt. Just used it in smoked porter and it gave very nice smoky flavours, not too strong and not too mellow either.
