Bottle from the brewery that pours a clean light golden colour with a frothy white head, good stay and some froth lacing. Smoked malt aromas with some light sweetness from the grains. The flavours are really the same - sweet and smoked malts. Thankfully, the end is dry, so not lingering like syrup. Makes this easier to drink. A nice smoked Helles lager.

Draft at the source. Hazy yellow color white head. Light burning straw aroma. Taste is subtle campfire. Very mellow. Light body.
