dark amber color. Very malty nose with tons of deep smoked Gouda - but not exactly Gouda. Still malty as hell. Love the smooth malty backbone and Smokey character. It’s like eating Smokey cheese over and over. Chewy and lovely.

Bottle. Very clear reddish amber with a tightly packed off white head. Aroma has layers of caramelised malt and toffee, smoke, light spices. Perhaps slightly lighter bodied than I'd have guessed. Not all that sweet but a little flabby where I wanted stern. Bitterness is just a little more than balancing. Some smoky and toasted notes linger. Not bad.
