Mild smoke nose. Clear golden, thin head. Smoke, maybe sweet hay, both subtle. Light body, easy carbonation. Served as kniesenack style. I've never heard of this style before, but I rather enjoy it. It's kind of like a smoky kolsch

Bottle from total wine NC. Just a little darker than pale. Alarming sweet cloying volatile nose. First taste is also sweet cloying alky based thick viscous liquid. Warming sensations all the way down. Whew. Difficult weird bitter hop awareness. Thick mouthcoating furor. Impact of agitation. Grim unpleasant awkwardness. One big unfavorable scandal. So much so big so taste bud scandalous blasting. Finishes with a big hard enraptured intoxication that will not be soon forgot. Whew whew whew. Good thing I'm gittin a little buzzy near the end, makes me forget how fricken rude triple hops can be. This probably should be styled as a strong ale; JMHO or is that the effects of the euphoria setten in?
