Draught at the Brauhaus: Yeasty, faint smoked aroma, sweetish-caramelly too; deep amber coloured, hazy; sweetish flavour, medium bodied; mild, but distinctive smoked aromas in the coffeeish-bitter finish. A very pleasant smoked (good for beginners...) !

(draught at the brewpub) Hazy and very dark brown colour with a mid-sized firm and stable off-white foam. Aromatic and distinctive smoked malt aroma with caramel and a shy but present hoppy background. Bitter flavour, light to medium body, smooth carbonated mouthfeel. Well-rounded smoke-malty taste with herbal hops right from the beginning; moderately dry and aromatic malty and smoked finish with hints of coffee and a bitter hoppy blend. Surely the best Rütershoff brew I had so far.
