On tap at brewery:
Pours lager clear with a solid gold body. Head is light but not too thin, moderate collar by the end, barely a spot of lacing.

Nose is a nice mix of sweet malt (Pilsner?) and a surprising little punch of campfire smoke.

Taste leans a little more on the malts, lightly sweet, but under control. A grassy bitterness sneaks underneath the thick wisps of smoke. A nice balance of smoke and malt, with a slightly astringent aftertaste. Nice carb level, light body.

I ended up liking the balance and the fact I could get a decent smokiness from a lighter beer.

Pours a clean yellow color with a white head. In the aroma, a bit smokey and just a touch of fruit. In the taste, a small smokiness, and a nice lager-ish feel with the malt balance. A small bite and medium bodied mouthfeel, with a dryer, lingering smokey aftertaste. A light smoke, but not too much, quite easy to drink.

On-tap at Cole's. A very light body with lots of white foamy head. The line probably needed to be cleaned up, but the flavour was fine. A significant but not overbearing smoked malt, rather faint in the aroma, in a well-malted beer. Good drinkability.Easy drinkability.
