From bottle at CBF Wien.
Dark brown body, with a medium, fluffy, dark beige head.
Aroma of chocolate, dried fruits, caramel, some bread, some coffee, some banana.
Taste follows this, with the banana notes a bit more present.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with a lively carbonation.
Finishes smooth, medium roasty, fruity, bready, a bit toasty.

Nice one. Interesting combination of the typical Porter notes and banana notes, works very well. Drinks smooth. Enjoyable, unique Porter.

Vienna 2015. Orange color with white head. Like a regular APA with hints of smoke, just like you’d expect it, but with a weaker smoke character. Nicely balanced, not bad. 3.1Bottle, BKL17. Clear amber color with soapy tan head. Aroma is buttery, touch of smoke, . Taste is smoked, buttery, nice pale ale body with some residual sweetness. Fruity aftertaste with a touch of smoke. Oily mouthfeel. Nice - my palate likes smoked much more by now, it appears. 7-4-7-3-15

Tap, Vienna 2015. Tropical fruits, melons, nice aroma. Taste is some vegetables, bitter, fruity. Great aroma, a bit too bitter taste, not too balanced. But I guess that’s intentional.Tap, BKL17. Better! Hazy orange color with white head. Aroma is hoppy, leafy. Taste is bitter, leafy, tea-like even, earthy-herbal. Medium carbonation, heavily bitter, even medicinal aftertaste. Intense, but very nice.

Draugt at CBF Wien.
Copper, hazy body, with a medium, creamy, slightly yellow head.
Aroma of smoke, berries, caramel, melon, some grass.
Taste follows this, with some more citrus.
Medium, a bit creamy mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes smooth, smokey, sweet, fruity.

Nice one. Smooth and easy, with a very well balance between the smoke, sweet malts and fruity notes. Enjoyed the previous version from Beer Store even a bit more, while it is not so different and also enjoyable.

Draught at Craft Bier Fest Wien Tasting Sessions.
Dark amber to copper, hazy body, with a medium, creamy, off-white head.
Aroma of bacon, citrus, strawberry, stone fruits, grass, biscuit.
Tastes of bacon, biscuit, honey, grapefruit, grass, sweet berries, peach.
Medium, oily mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes medium bitter, smokey, zesty, grassy, sweet malty.

Very interesting. The combination of smoked malts and fruity hops works surprisingly good. Very well balanced, also because of a very smooth, sweet malt backbone. Enjoyed this a lot, really quaffable.

Draught at CBF Wien.
Orange-amber, hazy body, with a big, creamy, lacing, off-white head.
Aroma of grapefruit, passion fruit, orange, grass, candy.
Taste follows this, with some more biscuit.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes pretty bitter, dry, zesty, herbal, citric, but also sweet malty.

Tasty. Very crisp and well balanced, with lovely fruits and smooth sweet malts. Strong bitterness in the finish, but not too harsh, overall hiding the 200 IBU very well. Among the best IPAs from Austria in my opinion.
