Harpoon Rauchfetzen is the 25th offering from our 100 Barrel Series. We used beechwood smoked malt from Bamberg, Germany to craft this copper-colored ale that evokes Rauchfetzen, a poetic German word meaning “wisp of smoke.” While many smoked beers are heavy on the pallet, this beer allows the character of the smoked malt to play off the herbal bitterness of Hallertau hops and the fresh, bread-like quality of Munich and Pilsner malts. Enjoy this beer with a variety of cheeses and sausages. BREWED BY This beer was brewed by Charlie Cummings, Harpoon brewer AVAILABLE FROM November 2008 to ....

    Apr 24, 2009 On tap at the bocktown, very nice place. Hazy brownish pale yellow appearance with a thin tea froth head. Initial bandage taste. Barely any aroma, but what is there seems to be a bit sterile. I sense some kind of smoke in the taste but it is fairly laid back compared to other smoked beers I’ve had and I like it better that way. Barely any carbonation. OK for a smoker. Bandaid hospital finish.
