Rauchbier·Germany·5.3% ABV·One of 72 Rauchbiers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Spezial Rauchbier Export's smoky and malty character. Golden yellow in the glass, mild in its smoky flavour and delicate in hop bitterness, yet full-bodied and soft on the palate. It is brewed with a mashing method from the 1970s, combined with contemporary malts from today's barley varieties. It comes from the family-run Bamberg brewery that kilns its own smoked malt by hand over a beechwood fire.
