Step into the world of authentic Bramberg brewing with Kräusen, a unique unfiltered smoked specialty from the iconic Schlenkerla brewery. Sitting at a crisp, incredibly sessionable 4.5% ABV, this traditional lager combines the brewery’s famous Märzen base with a process known as "Kräusening"—adding a portion of young, actively fermenting beer right before bottling. The result is a delightfully hazy pour with an ultra-smooth, creamy carbonation and a softer, more rounded profile. Upfront, you’re greeted by Schlenkerla’s signature Beechwood smoke aromatics, which harmoniously weave through layers of fresh bread crust, delicate malt sweetness, and subtle herbal hops. Complex, velvety, and exceptionally drinkable, it’s a brilliant entry point to smoked beers.
