Euphoric waves of maple syrup, raisin, and oatmeal cookies radiate from this modern-take on a classic style. The subtle smoke debuts alongside chewy caramel and house-toasted oak, leaving behind a delicate bitterness balanced by herbal and cocoa notes.

50cl pours a murky brown, ring of white head. Nose has smoke and oak, malt, soil. Flavor is waaaay smokier, sausage and malt and tea. A little peppery. Medium bodied. 6 6 5.5 6 5.5

At the January 2026 DC Brewver gathering. Poured a dark brown color with a small off-white head. Aroma was a decent amount of smoked meats, not overly smokey, but smoke along the lines of a smoked bacon or some kind of very old smoker. Light peppery notes.
