Tap pour at the brewery, July 2016. Pours clear golden with a lasting white head. Aroma: smoked beechwood, meaty, spicy hops. Taste: light sweet, crisp, dry, cracker malt crisp, wood smoke. Light to medium body with soft carbonation.

Tap at the brewery during GABF week, 2015. Copper color, lacing head. A simple beer, but they nailed the rauchbier style with the smoke in the aroma and flavor and dry malt flavor as well.

Pint at the brewery - lightly hazy copper - given the abv and ibu, I was expecting a more traditional german rauchbier, which this is not (or if it’s supposed to be, it doesn’t taste like it) - more ale-like in character, with a very dry and.biscuity malt.flavor, but also a slight tanginess - the finish is watery and a little husky - smoke character is lovely in the nose, but in the flavor is a little ashy and astringent - a bit disappointing.
