Bottle: Orangey brown pour with a wispy head. Nice smoky aroma. There’s some honey sweetness in the back as well, reminding me of BBQ sauce. Slick mouthfeel, fairly light bodied. Has a very interesting flavor. Herbal character upfront and a solid honey like background. The sweetness is followed by an earthy, mild peat finish filled with smoke. Interesting brew.
