Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Märzen
S--smells like a campfire or a burnt out oak tree. Really could not distinguish any of the bready malts that would be in a standard marzen. Smoke is just such a powerful profile to have much complexity. A--deep walnut stained color. Tan head. Fluffy with okay retention. T-- smoked salted ham. Some type of raw nuttiness was present. M--smooth and dry not unlike a scotch, but not quite as intense. D--it's a slower sipper for me. To be honest I hate this style and didn't like this beer, but I did it because it's always good to be open. Based on the reviews and comments on other rauchbiers this is exactly what they taste like and is a good reproduction.
