Medium, off-white head over deep reddish amber beer, veiled. Caramel, toasted malts, alcohol... as to smoke? Caramel, some kind of honeyed corn flakes and a faint spicy hint. Wheat is not obvious, neither the smoke. Alcohol is extremely hidden for its claimed 11% ABV. Light alcoholburn and -thinning. Slick, bit oily, medium to well-bodied. This might have been more pushed towards the smoke. There is balance, but it doesn't confer much enjoyment.
