Aecht Schlenkerla Eiche Doppelbock Jahrgangsbier 20xx
Brewer: Heller-Bräu Trum
Style: Smoked - Rauchbier
Alcohol Content: 8%
Seasonal: No
Description:
The vintage version of the Oak Smoke double bock has been bottled unfiltered and matured for 5 years in the historic rock cellars of "Stephansberg" under the Schlenkerla brewery. This vintage version of the classic "Schlenkerla Eiche" is also unfiltered and with it’s high ABV it’s possible to store for many years. The flavors will be refined ’cause of the yeast over the time, giving every year a different taste.
General info on Eiche: Following century old recipes all malts made at the Schlenkerla brewery are dried by wood fire. While for the classic Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier traditionally beech has been and still is used, the malt for Schlenkerla Oak Smoke is kilned with oak wood. The resulting Oak Smoke Malt has a smoother and more multi layered smoky note than the intensely aromatic Beech Smoke Malt. The hence complex smokiness in Schlenkerla Oak Smoke is paired with the multifaceted bitterness of finest Hallertau aroma hops. With 8% alcohol and amber color it matures for months in the deep brewery cellars underneath Bamberg into a special treat for smoke beer lovers for Christmas.
