Smoked beer is about as polarizing a flavor as you can get, even to hardcore beer nerds. Given our recent rekindling of our smoke beer fetish on this show, we were lucky enough to have Matthias Trum, part of the current generation of smoked beer stewards at the historic Schlenkerla brewery as our guest! Stationed in the heart of Bamberg, Germany, The Trum family has cared for the Schlenkerla legacy for decades, with each generation taking steps to ensure its survival. How do they survive in a world dominated by IPA? Matthias tells us that and more on this very special episode of Dr. Homebrew!
