Brewery draught, 7/22/23. Clear, amber-bronze-cherry. Medium-sized white head sits at cover. Lovely, schlennie-like oak smoke, with salt, big pepper and hints of smoked meat. Barrel mellowing but not contributing bourbon at this point, which is probably for the best. Clean, crisp, good yeast signature. Soft up front, very malty, though drying through the middle with grainy malts and now I do get light bourbon with rich vanilla and a smokey sausage finish. Quite malty but good tannic dryness on the finish. Powerful smoke but not overdone in a Schlenkerla sense. No booze or flaw noted. Maybe just a shade too sweet for its size.

Sample at the brewery is a clear orange white head. Huge sausage and smoke nose, oak smoke and raw wood. Flavor has grain and malt, some honey, the smoke is big, like a peated scotch almost. Salty, smokey, sweet finish. Big.
