Enjoyed at the brewery, October 2022. Smoked malt nose, but not too strong. More smokiness in the taste, but still not too crazy (or Super). The mouthfeel is nicely dry. A decent, dry, crisp, lightly darker, smoked beer.

On tap at Leunig’s Bistro & Cafe in Burlington, VT. Amber orange color with a creamy beige head and generous lacing. Toasted malt aroma has earthy notes. Flavor is toasted bread and caramel. Some spicy hops as well. Easy drinking. Decent.

Part of their 12-pack sampler for Vermont spring 2023 trip. Lightly hazy, golden colour with an amber hue. A bubbly white cap, average stay and some spots of lacing. Malty nose with some wheat-banana notes and mild grassy hops. Straw malt base with maybe a touch of wheat. The hops gives a herbal finish, drying things and hints of citrus blended in. A thinner, E-Z-drinking, hazy Ale with more hops to not be syrupy. Works.

Very lightly hazed, light yellow colour with a big white frothy head, good stay and some foamy lacing. Cereal grain aromas at first with some decent herbal hop notes coming out. The hops continue nicely in the taste with the grains as a base. Refreshing mouthfeel with a nice touch of dryness in the end. A real good easy-going lager with a Pils-feel, and the hops helping a lot here.
