Bottle. Clear orange golden. Malty orange, soft buttery sweetness (no, just the texture, no butter smell), booze. Well, taste is odd, sour. Needs a rerate.

Bottle, mild gusher. Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is honeyish, mild grains, and a bit yeasty. Taste is the same, quite bready, with a soapy finish and some peachy fruitiness. Foamy carbonation. Seems like an infection, needs a rerate in a future year.

Tap. Unclear golden color with white head. Aroma is buttery, but in the good fresh way, floral, fruity, juicy malts, quite moreish. Taste is butterbrod, mildly floral, quite juicy, cereals. Juicy-oily mouthfeel, fine-bubbled carbonation. Tasty if you can handle the butter!

Getrunken als „Posthörnla …das Rauchige“ mit 5,2 % Alk. Bernsteinfarben. Süß / rauchiger Geruch. Die malzige Süße ist geschmacklich deutlich vorhanden, aber nicht so stark wie im Geruch. Angenehmer, leicht „holziger“ Geschmack. Spuren von Honig sind erkennbar. Der Rauch sehe ich knapp unter Medium angesiedelt. Hopfung sehr dezent - die recht süße Grundnote könnte ein wenig mehr herben Konter gut vertragen. Schön weich, fliest wie warmes Leichtlauföl die Kehle runter.
