Shelter at The Roost | 1401 Pennsylvania Ave. SE
Thursday, July 23rd | 12:00 PM - Close

Join Shelter on Thursday, July 23rd, as we celebrate Smokebeer Preservation Day 2026! This yearly tradition is a public holiday in Bamberg–the epicenter of Germany’s smoked beer culture! It marks the day in 1635 on which the first smoke-free malt-drying machine was patented. For this special day, we will pour 6 classic smoked beers from Schlenkerla (officially called Heller-Bräu Trum).

That turning point in beer history sparked the rise in popularity of smoke-free beers, with a few exceptions such as those produced at Schlenkerla. By toasting to their assortment of rauchbiers, we aim to help preserve the style, even as technology and tastes have changed since that date almost 400 years ago.

Don’t miss your chance to try this special lineup of 6 drafts–all from the most famous smoked beer brewery in the world.

There is no admission fee for this event. All featured beers will be available a la carte.
