hopIQ found 10 beers with the same smoky and oak character as Oaktoberweizen. A smoked wheat beer whose orange to honey-yellow colour and full body recall a Märzen. The "oak" in the name refers to the base malt: a pale wheat malt kilned over oak smoke, with which Weyermann ties in with Bamberg's old smoked-beer tradition. The elegant oak-smoke flavour meets lively carbonation, banana and clove from the yeast and lightly grassy, resinous hop notes. The finish is gently sweet. Suggested with Franconian snack plates, light salads, Obatzter and Camembert. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
