Common descriptors are
This deep brown, smoky ale is brewed with pilsner, Munich, roasted and caramel malts as well as a healthy dose of beechwood-smoked malt from Germany. Some breweries just age their beers on beechwood. We think this adds more character. The smoked malt from Bamburg, Germany is a classic used around the world for a fine smoke flavor and aroma. Caramel malt adds sweetness to mellow the smoke and northern brewer hops add further balance to this unique beer. O.G. 15/1060. Hops - 35 IBUs
