16 oz can dated 09/05/19.
I bought a 4-pack of this at the brewery in December after having one at the taproom. Drinking the last can of that tonight.
Light gold color with brilliant clarity. Medium creamy white head with good retention. Constant stream of bubbles from the lively carbonation. Great looking lager.
Strong smoke aroma and flavor, reminiscent of smoked ham or bacon. Light Pils malt sweetness. Even a hint of peat.
Clean and smooth, fully attenuated feel. Medium-light bodied.
This is an awesome rauchbier. Really wish more brewers would take on the style, and do it proper justice like Barrier did here. I could drink this all night long.

Just a smoke bomb.
After getting hopped out this beer is a palette cleanser of smoked meat and wood. Pair with a peaty scotch like Ardbeg and a fat cigar.....maybe some beef jerky.....
At 5.4 it's a good BBQ beer and you can swig a good amount of this one.....
I can hear the horses winnie from here as Frau Blucher enters the fray....
