Tap @ Furusatomatsuri (18.01.2019). Clear golden, not that much foam and only a few bubbles on the top. Nose has some smoked bacon and smoked nuts. Kind of rich and pungent - but in a pleasant way. Really, liking this. Taste has this chewy smoke character still there, oily and feels malty and with a bit of booze. Medium low bitterness but more than usual in lagers. Quite happy with this, better than I expected.

dull amber color. light smokiness, fairly clean palate, but smoke doesn't have amazing depth. OK. Rated late January 2019 and six weeks later this jumps from 3.3 to 3.5 as depth improved with a lots more smoked cheese.
