On tap at the brewery. Pours golden. Aroma is awesome: smoked peat, rye bread, rubber. Flavor is smoked peat, rubber, rye. Lots of flavor and for a fan of smoked anything this is great.

Draft at the source. Hazy golden color, white head. Nice aroma of dusty and lightly spiced hay. Taste has light smoke, pepper, subtle spice. Tasty.

Poured a slightly hazy ruby-orange color with a small off-white head. Light spicy rye notes, but not overpowering. Light sweet malts, chewy, earthy notes. Pretty tasty.

Smoke aroma, ash. Clear amber, thick head. Smoke and grass flavor. Medium body, soft carbonation. Quaffable, which is hard to pull off with smoked malts. Added as a specialty grain as that appears to be the brewer’s intent, but this beer does have a pronounced but not intense smoke note. Really nice.
