Rauchbier

90 Smoke Ale, Rogue Ales (OR). 7% ABV (9/09)
Slightly hazy orange amber color. Aromas of dried smoked ham and rye toast follow through on a supple entry to a dryish medium-to-full body with hints of baked apple and roasted nuts. Finishes with a crisp, dried citrus and earthy hop-accented fade. A nicely balanced, understated smoked beer that will go fantastically with sausages and a sharp cheeses.

86 Ludwig’s Revenge, Roy-Pitz Brewing Co. (PA). 5.27% ABV (9/10) %{Brewpub}
Dark brown color. Crispy bacon and roasted nut aromas and flavor with a bouncy, dry light-to-medium body and zippy, straw kissed finish. Nice hint of smoke and easy drinking.
