4.5/5  rDev +1.8%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Clear orange. Off white head.

Smell: Caramel and smokiness.

Taste: Initial caramel and malt sweetness, followed by very strong smoky flavor. Hops come in next, with a bitter and nutty aftertaste.

Mouthfeel: Very clean with good carbonation.

Drinkability: Easy drinking. These did not last long in my glass.

Comments: Yeeowwww! So this is what a smoked beer is supposed to taste like. Fantastic! I also love the way the caramel mixes with the smoky flavor. Another great offering from Black Forest.

"Steam" beer warmer ferment and rauch malt? I had to try this one.

Very different in a good way.
Color is beautiful light copper with amber hues and light tan lacy head.
Aroma light roasted caramel light smokey smell.
Flavor...Carmel malt, light roasty/smokey flavor that finishes smooth and dry.
Mouthfeel is a little thin, but I could drink tons of it.
I am definately grabbing a few growlers before this goes away.
