Draught @SOPP 2010. Poured hazy, copper color. Fruity, slightly smoky aroma. Flavor is fruity and bitter, with the smoke in the background. Recognizable house flavor. Ends bitter. Interesting, but I would have liked a little more smoke.

Slightly hazy copper-amber color, tiny white head. Woody-resiny hoppy aroma with hints of smoke. Quite light body for being 6.2% beer. Oily palate. Bitter-hoppy flavor, spruce and resin ... Plus Bruuveri "house flavor". Aftertaste has hints of smoke, but lingering bitterness covers most of it. Nice hoppyness, but not balanced with smokey aromas and flavors.
