Bottle sample at a tasting at Tom L’s place. Thanks Max. Hazy amber. Aroma of malt, caramel, smoked sausage. Sweet and sourish flavor with caramel, smokiness, a bit of fruitiness, bitterish note. Medium-bodied.

Bottle courtesy of Taboada, many thanks! Not really brown, rather dark amber color with bubbly white head that looks like dish-liquid foam. Aroma is soapy, dish-washing flavoured (wtf), tart berries, berry skin, some dark malts and coffe underlying the intensely perfumed citrus-soapy character. The aroma smells like it’s unintended. It’s not bad, just not at all the flavours a Smoked Lager should have. A few other raters also mention similar flavours. Taste is tart berries, chalk, brown malts, some coffee, nothing smoky. Low carbonation. "Infection gone well"? It’s quite okay, but not my type of beer.

Bottle shared by Cuso. Aroma seems too estery and sourish. However taste is completely different, sweetish but nicely complemented by moderate beech smoke. Somehow drinkable, though individual characteristics point otherwise.
