Clear golden color with white foam. Light berry fruit, aged pale malt aromas. medium bodied. Lightly sweet berry fruit flavors with some lagered maltage, no peat or smoke though--decent enough

Tap at PW. Clear gold pour, short white head leaving minimal lace. Nose lightly fruity and has a trace of peat. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Light peat, white bread, almonds, wheat malt and light fruit. Finish is sweet, nutty and fairly short. Nicely done, but a bit light at the finish. No acetyl aromas as described in the other ratings - I think QC may be a problem on this one?

Golden with thin head. The aroma is a bit buttery. Body is light and the taste is just a vague maltiness, hint of acidity and whiff of smoke. This just didn’t work out.

Draft @ Brouwers. Clear warm gold . Diacetyl taints the aroma. The palate too is sticky and annoying. There is good stuff hidden like nice peat on a campfire expression but is not well made. No balance. No discernible malt char no hops. Way too buttery. Popcorn butter on palate. Disappointing!
