Can. Good smoked aroma, campfire and smoked meat, but not too overwhelming. Clear dark brown colour. Small light brown head. The flavour is smoked and slightly nutty. Late nutty bitterness.

Can @ Øllets Dag 2024, Sønderborg. Pours clear tea amber with airy off-white head. Clear aroma of malt and smoke, with touches of caramel and yeast. Bitter, hoppy and roasty flavour with notes of caramel malt and smoke, and estery touches. Nutty and smoky aftertaste with estery notes. Decent, if a little thin.
