Tap at the brewery. Strong aroma of apricot, which is the best quality of this beer. Flavor has some apricot, but not nearly as much as in the flavor. Flavor is lightly bitter, some hops, in addition to the apricot.

Tap at the brewery. I liked this more than I expected I would. Very smooth palate. Chocolate, moderate roast, and lots of sugar. Black of course. Good, but maybe too expensive at $6.

Like the regular beer, the smoke is too light and it needs more in the aroma and the flavor. The peach adds something here; you know it is there, and I think this is the first fruit-added smoked beer I have tried anywhere.
