What about the beer?
Colour is very dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma has peaty smoke and smoked malts. Taste starts with sharp smoked-roasted bitterness. Sweet smoked caramel malts with
bitter dark fruits on the side take over. Growing roast and
bitterness strike near the finish. Aftertaste lasts long and has roasted malty
bitterness and gently smoked dryness.
Really special smoked brew from Bamberg. Luring smoky aroma
incarnates in the taste: strong smoke in the start rounds up a bit to give
room to sweet malts and bitter hops. Lasting aftertaste crowns the
experience. Heavy and delicious beer.
Ölbeat
A traditional classic brew must be joined by a golden classic. Remembering that the theme of the brew is smoke in a very luring way. Don't know if my heart caught fire wtih the brew, but it surely was damn close.
