Tap at the brewpub. Slight hazy golden with small white head. Light brown bread, dry malts, almonds, apricot, soft grassy hops. Quite malty but in a dry way, some soft fruits and hops but this is absolutely not an IPA. Under medium sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with a bit dry feel.

From the tap at Martinus. Pours hazy and orange, with limited white foam. Aroma is unconvincing: something sweet, some mandarin maybe. Body is medium with good carbonation. Taste is sweet, though this is supposed to be an IPA. Only some final bitterness, but very limited. Finish is uninteresting, I guess the IBM supercomputer has failed :) Our maybe this is suitable only for Groningers... ;-)

From the tap at Martinus. Pours very dark brown with cappuccino foam. Aroma is obviously smoked, but also has terrain. Body is medium with limited stickiness. Taste starts with some sweetness and ends with a hint of bitterness. Finish is relatively long and pleasant. A great smoked beer!
