Bonfire Nights is a traditional German-style lager that showcases malts dried over an open fire. These rauchbiers can range from mildly smoky with just a small addition of smoked malts to a campfire in a glass. This is the latter. Bonfire Nights uses over 1,000 lbs. of beechwood-smoked malts to make a 5.3% ABV, amber-colored lager that offers a truly distinct drinking experience. We recommend pairing this one with your favorite cigar, a bratwurst, or even a s'mores-inspired dessert.

Pours a striking burnt copper color with over a finger of head. The nose has smokey campfire notes. The flavor has smoke as well although it is less potent than the nose would indicate. The flavor profile also has a bit of an odd sour note that is out of place but not terribly obtrusive.
