Not the greatest but I wanted something besides the usual.

These Schlenkerlas drink like a soda; birch beer, cream soda, root beer. I expected a more edgy harshness, more of a kick, but it just isn't there. Creamy, mellow with a full body. Warning: I opened this bottle and was distracted for a bit. When I returned, there was a small foam pillar coming from the bottle mouth, so I wiped it off with my finger and took a taste... yuck! Thought I'd been poisoned. The beer was fantastic, though.

Oak smoke doppelbock by Schlenkerla. 8% ABV, which you'll know by its effect, but still very smooth, like the whole line. More of a lingering smoke note. Cellar temp, no improvement that I could detect. Good, but the least favorite of the ones I've tried. Schlenkerla is a great brewer of smoked beers; try 'em if you have the opportunity.
