You don’t see a Brazilian brew in Upper Franconia every day. We have the extraordinary specialty for you in our range!
The Weiherer Rauchbock presents beer in its most beautiful form: as a link between cultures and people. To combine their strengths to create a smoky hop work of art, two brewers crossed entire continents and more than 9,000 kilometers. Roland Kundmüller from Upper Franconia and Alexandre Bazzo from Brazil created the amber-colored smoker and caused an international stir. The Rauchbock has won numerous awards and delights beer fans all over the world.
Four types of malt give the Weiherer Rauchbock its unique taste and strong color. The origin of the unusual cooperation was a meeting between the two brewers at BrauBeviale 2010. The two passionate smoked beer fans met there and immediately hit it off. The dream of brewing together came true a few years later with the Weiherer Rauchbock. Alexandre Bazzo has a long-standing love for the beers from Bamberg and the surrounding area, which is why he named his brewery Cervejaria Bamberg, even though it is located thousands of kilometers from the German cathedral city in Votorantim, Brazil.
In contrast to traditional smoked beer, it was important to the two very different brewers not to just focus on the malt. The hops should also come into their own and we think they did an excellent job of that. Four types of hops, including hops from our own cultivation, were allowed to go into the kettle and unfold their magic there. A true work of art of Brazilian-German friendship!
