A bottom fermented smokebeer brewed in Schlenkerla, a historic brewpub in Bamberg, Germany. Dark brown mahogany color, strong smoky smell with a caramel note, remind on fried bacon so you can think you have a meal in the bottle. The taste will follow the smell with slightly hop bitterness.

I am sorry that I didn't have an opportunity to make fire and grill while drinking this beer. If you didn't try something like that I definitely recommend this beer.
