It’s getting cool enough to enjoy some Canadian-Style Yellow Split-Pea Soup. My recipe uses smoked beer (http://bit.ly/WYobO4). Anyone else use a lager or an ale?

How on earth does one smoke a beer?

The recipe however looks great.

I've never considered using beer in split pea soup, but I like the
idea and will give it a shot sometime.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoked_beer tells you how. There's a
town in Bavaria called Bamberg that's renowned for smoked beer. We
bought a bottle to share and decided it's an acquired taste. I didn't
like it at all, hubby finished the bottle but didn't go back for more.

I like to braise pork in beer, so I think I'll find a smoked beer here
and try it the next time I braise pork for pulling. Hopefully, it
will impart a smoky flavor to the meat but not be overpowering.

Well that's another first for me!

I see by the list that the Sam Adams brand offers one domestically. I
certainly think that the flavor would be very compatible with braised
pork, or beef.

Ancient history. OTOH, Alaska Brewing Smoked Porter is to die for,
when you can get it:

Wasn't Bamberg in Franken?

If it works, it could be the real use of rauchbier. Tell us how it worked
out
