Oak Doppelbock

Eiche Doppelbock — Oak-Smoked Doppelbock — Schlenkerla, Bamberg

Eiche Doppelbock is the Christmas beer from Schlenkerla — the strongest in the lineup: a Doppelbock with 8% ABV where the malt is smoked over oak wood, resulting in a smoother and less sharp smoke flavor compared to the classic beechwood smoke, combined with a more structured beer. A Franconian masterpiece, available only during the Christmas season.
