There is no bacon in this beer. Repeat, there is no bacon in this beer. Just the power of association. This a traditional German Rauchbier, which uses 60% of the malt as beechwood-smoked barley. Beechwood is commonly used for smoking pork, thus the association with bacon. Light to medium body, fairly low hoppiness, and a great smoked aroma pair perfectly with meats and meat alternatives. Prosit!

Amber color with a white head. Aroma is smokey with some bacon and ham along with caramel. Flavor also contains a buffet of smoked meat with some caramel and toffee. Medium bodied so drinkable but intense flavor. Nice beer.

Comes out of the tap a pretty, slightly hazy amber with a thin but fine-bubbled eggshell head. Malty aroma has a decided overtone of beech - it does smell a little like bacon (and I’m a vegetarian!) and has a subtle note of hard candy. Beechwood dominates the malty flavor - interesting and distinctive, doesn’t do much for me, but that’s just me. I get a hint or two of fruit, smoke and hops as well. Texture is firm, almost syrupy, though fizz is none too strong. If you like beech (and bacon) you may like this one.
