Bottle, as Smokey BLND. Almost same label, same ABV. BLND was already brewed with smoked malt, so I believe they just updated the label with the tekst "smokey". Color: Slightly hazy golden, white head. Aroma: Malty, only very lightly hints of smoke. Taste: Malty, yeasty, hints of yellow fruit esters, subtle smokey, smoked fish. Hoppy backbone. Dry finish. Although the smoke is subtle, at certainly adds a flavour, making this brew a bit more interesting than a lot of standard Blonds.

4/VIII/24 - 33cl bottle as a gift, shared @ my parents’ place, BB: 3/X/24 (2024-685) Thanks to Renno for the bottle!
Little cloudy gold blond beer, small creamy white head, a little stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: very yeasty, some ripe banana, very spicy, almost smoky, malty, rural impression. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty bitter start, a bit sourish, very malty, spicy, smoky touch, more spicy. Aftertaste: more smoky notes, malty, a bit medicinal, bitter finish, pretty decent! (The bottle was relabeled for a birthday party, only knew the name of the original beer, hence my surprise about the smoke.)

(Draught at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 13 Aug 2023) Golden colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, slightly smoky nose with notes of grass, herbs, hay and mixed fruit. Fruity, hoppy taste with bread, grass, citrus and a balanced herbal bitterness in a finish with a mild smoky touch. Medium body, quite dry. Interesting, with a mild, but surprising, smoky touch. Quite enjoyable.
