Can compliments of TongoRad. Thanks Michael!
It pours a lovely copper colour, nice head of foam with some lacing behind.
Smells of bread, lemon citrus, more actually noble hop like.
Tastes even better than it smells. Nice bready malt backbone with the hops again resembling noble hop like character. Finishes bready and that's the way I like it, especially for the style.
Good mouthfeel, overall, an excellent example of the style.

On tap at Alchemist & Barrister in Princeton, NJ. Amber orange pour. Small creamy beige head. Grainy toasted malt aroma. Flavor follows nose with nutty, spicy notes. A touch of caramel and lightly browned butter. Decent.

Had no idea what this was on the menu of a Yard House. Was happy and surprised this came as a smoked beer. However, aside from that it's a mess. The smoke is almost certainly fake, not smoked malts but liquid smoke. If it's not well the rest of the beer is so artificial. Sweet candy, caramel syrup but a lifeless body. Just sooooo sweet and the smoke becomes aversive by getting caught up in the sweetness.

Sample at GABF 10/08/2016, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Hazy pale golden color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing. Grassy hops, fruit and malt in the nose. Light-bodied wit flavors of herbal hop, citrus and biscuit malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short grassy hop aftertaste. Average overall.
