Okay, get ready for some serious old world beer flavor with Rauchbier! This distinctive German beer style literally translates to “smoke beer” – and you can taste why. The malt used to brew Rauchbiers is dried over an open flame, which gives the beer an intense smoky aroma and flavor. Some compare it to the smell of bacon or smoked ham. It can seem a little unusual at first, but it’s absolutely addictive once you acquire the taste.
