Smoke is light and pretty well integrated here. You can still actually taste the helles, which is novel for a rauchbier. Golden pour with decent head. Some of that crisp barley flavour nice in a good helles. Crisp finish. Tap at new Fairfax Commonwealth location.

$3.85 pint can, WW. Clear gold with a frothy white head. Aroma is lightly smoked peat, green and brown grasses, leaf. Flavor is smoked peat, green leaf, brown grass and leaf, glue. Good amount of smoke (was told it was lightly smoked... it's medium, which is good). Good flavor.
