Review and Tasting

Sampled on 15/12/2016

Appearance:

(sample bottle BBE Jul/17) Hazy, sand yellow with thin but retentive off-white head and light lacing.

Aroma:

Bonfire smoke, yeast, soft new leather maltiness.

Taste:

Dry and medium-bodied. Light smokiness integrates well with lightly yeasty toasty white bready malt and mil grassy hops.

Aftertaste:

Dry, lightly smoked finish.

Overall:

This beer is smoky, but delicately so, with lightly bitter hops and malty notes in balance rather than overshadowed.
