A couple months ago, there was a delicious Rauchbier in the keezer, I was there for a Tuesday Brewsday and gave it a whirl. It may have been a carryover from BrewBQ, I can't remember. Whose recipe was that, care to share? I'm having a tough time finding a good recipe for one...

Rauchbier Recipe
It may have been mine (I hope!), so thanks! I know Chuck has also brewed a Rauch recently.
Southern Rauch
58% BestMalz Smoked Malt
21% BestMalz Pilsner
16% BestMalz Munich II
4% CaraMunich II
1% Carafa II
Mash @ 152F for 60 minutes (mash pH @ 5.4)
Any bittering hop to ~20 IBUs (I actually used Belma, but Magnum or Northern Brewer would work well)
Ferment in the lagering chamber (~48F) with 2 packs of rehydrated SafLager 34/70 (thanks, Joe!)
Ferment ~5 days, then I like to move to the regular walk-in ferm room to finish out. Kegged and lagered in my kegerator at home. Fined with gelatin.
Cheers!
Awesome recipe. Thanks for sharing.

If it was good one then it was mine. Kyle's taste like an ashtray. ;)
80% 2 row or pale malt
20% smoked grains.
I''ve been wanting to smoke my own malt. Anyone done this?
Is that a Pall Mall ashtray or a Virginia Slims one?
I always smoke my own grains.
