Rogue Smoke(previously known as Welkommen on draft) is a German style Rauchbier (Smoke Beer), which was inspired by the Fall of the Berlin Wall. Most rauch brews are bottom fermented, however Rogue Smoke, is top fermented. It is orange-amber in hue with a delicate smoke aroma and flavor with an intense hop finish.
In All About Beer, August, 1995 issue, Christopher Brooks writes \Alder woodis the smoking agentthough a small amount of Bamberg malt is used in the mashtoo. Beech is drier than alderreports brewmaster John Maierso we use a little of that for added complexity. Welkommena smokynutty aleis also very drywhich given the 15 pounds of hops (perle and Saaz) added to each 15-barrel batchis no surprise.\" The seven medals in nine years which Rogue Smoke won at theGreat American Beer Festival in Denver are also a tribute to this unusual brew.
