Pint can pours with a clear deep ruby red to mahogany colored body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The modest aroma offers up a bit of malts, dark fruity esters and a sliver of smoke. The taste delivers some sweet malts wrapped around fig and plum like fruity esters that pick up a slight cherry sensation to midway. The malts create a sense of chewiness while not being thick. Like the nose the ruach is there but far too faint for my taste. This is a sound offering nonetheless. Hopefully this will be made again and the smokiness will be ratcheted up a few notches. 2026 batch. The smokiness in basically at just noticeable levels. Unfortunately and frustratingly. Score is reduced from 7.4 down to 6.9
