Though most smoked beers now use modern gas or electric heating methods, Schlenkerla have held tight to the skills developed by generation after generation of brewers, making their Rauchbier one of the last old-style brews on the market.

Brewed with aroma hops from the area around Nürnberg, Schlenkerla Helles Lagerbier is lagered underneath the brewery and fermented by the same yeast as the historic smokebeer. A subtle smokiness without using smoke malt makes Schlenkerla Helles Lagerbier unique in the Bavarian style.ABV: 4.3%
