Tap at HopDog. Very cloudy deep orange with a thick head. Light orange and lemon in the nose, light doughy malt. Lemon and orange flavors, estery, biscuity malt, full body. Silky, with low carbonation. Very subtle and delicate. doesn't hit hard, but super drinkable.

Pours a semi-transparent amber, with a rather big frothy white head; recedes relatively quick though and leaves little lacing. Low to medium intensity in the aroma: caramel malts, hints of honey, timid smoked notes (wood, ashes), quite vivid (at least in the overall balance) floral hops. Taste notes follow the aroma closely. Smokiness is quite low per style while there's more bitterness than usual, especially in the dry finish/aftertaste. Lacks the full feeling that malts and smoked notes usually give to rauchbiers. Light to medium bodied, pretty low carbonation (probably a bit lower than usual); drinks easily, feels slightly oily. Ok, but doesn't work for me.

1 September 2023. At Gasthof 3 Linden, Bamberg. Cheers to Domien, Eduard & Maarten!
A: clear golden-orange, small, foamy, off-white head.
A: dust, musty cellar, rotten orange, wet biscuit, straw, barnyard with cows on it, butter.
T: sweet old apple, pear, biscuit, butter, straw, cellar.
F: old grassy hops, bitter yeast, straw, dust.
P: medium body, slick texture, average carbonation.
Intense Keller, which is evidently not always the case; so 'bad' it's good.

Bottle at Ratebeer München Tasting Tuesday 31st January 2023. Aroma is a little dusty but nothing negative other than this on the aroma. Pours mid amber, soft caramel in the mouth, a good maltiness throughout, even a little light bitterness, good.
