Dark mahogany lager beer with huge smoky character from the German beechwood smoked malt. Laden with aromas of toffee, biscuit, bonfire and bacon with notes of fruit and candy. It’s rich and full bodied with a refreshing fruity edge and a lingering sweet finish.

Can at home. It pours clear darkest ruby with a thick, fluffy beige head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, big hit of smoke which lingers, toasty, smoked bacon, frazzles, molasses, treacle and some fruit cake. The taste is initially dry, bitter - sweet, roasted malt, toast, deep wood smoked malts which lingers throughout, charred wood, caramel, molasses, treacle, dried fruits, raisin, cherry, peppery spice, hint of jam, malt loaf and light warmth with a toasty, smokey finish. Medium+ body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Fulsome, moreish and satisfying. STF are doing some great stuff right now.

Tight foamy off white head left a creamy cover on reddish brown body. Bacon & smoked aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & soft on the tongue with lightly carbonated back. Malt, liquorice, jam & sweet berry tastes with a lightly smoked finish. That's decent.
