Started out good but quickly became hard to finish. Very malty and hardly any hop presence

Poured out a clear, amber color with a small, off-white head of foam. It smelled of toasted caramel, pine and some citrus. Sweet toasty bread flavor with caramel and a nice bitter bite.

Fresh from the tap at the brewery, this is a gem of a beer. Hazy amber with a thick head, rich, malty, but not too sweet with nicely balanced hoppiness. Light smokiness is a bonus. Poured from a growler, two days later, still excellent.

Not many people know what to classify this beer. We had multiple kegs go through our bar. It was very popular in it's short run. It is a SMOKED AMBER ALE. Anything smoked gets my attention.
There are also hints of pumpkin. I've noticed on other sites that they have 2 Lucid Oras. One with pumpkin spice added. Our's never mentioned the pumpkin spice but it is definitely there. No difference was mentioned on the keg either. So I assume all Ora is pumpkin spiced.
Overall great beer for a cold night and we get plenty of those in Minnesota.
Served on tap in a pint glass at Heartbreakers in Chaska
