Aecht Schlenkerla Urbock is the complex sibling of the classic Märzen smokebeer. Exactly like the classic all its barley malts are smoked over beech wood logs. Its higher smokemalt concentration and longer maturation in the 700 year old cellars underneath Bramburg create a taste profile of most intense smokiness beautifully balanced with deep malt sweetness.
If you're not sure whether you've had a Schlenkerla beer you definitely haven't had one. Every single beer has an aroma totally unique to this brewery. The brewery is based in Bamberg, where most of the world's smoked malt is produced.
This has a more intense smokiness than the usual rauchbiers. Once you get past that it's smooth and malty.

I've previously enjoyed the Märzen smoked beer so thought I'd give this one a go. It's a lot smokier than the Märzen and sadly that wasn't for me. I'm giving it three stars as the beer itself is fine, I did finish it, and I'm sure the very smokey character will appeal to some. Just be warned!

Schlenkerla proves to be the best when it comes to smoked beer... This Bock is particularly well done, the smokiness just enhanced the beauty of that style!
