beer_name: Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Märzen
text: this stuff was amazing; all other rauchbiers are unfortunate for me having sampled this as my first example of the style it's a black lager (so i wouldn't go with "mrzen") with a creamy stoutish-colored head. good lacing big smoke...everywhere. the aroma is hops and campfire. the flavor is liquid bacon (that sounds so gross, but it's so delicious) with a smooth medium+ body. bitterness is more of a balancing element, but it works well with the smoke, giving it something to stand on a damn fine brew...worth a trip to bamberg on its own
