A: The beer is a bit hazy orange amber in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a narrow collar around the edge and a narrow collar around the edge.
S: Moderate aromas of smoked malts are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell, but the smoked malts aren't nearly as prominent as there are also underlying notes of caramel and pale malts. No hop flavors are perceptible, although they do contribute a light amount of bitterness and mask any sweetness from the malts.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer seems lighter in body and less malty compared to other beers in the style but the smokiness in the smell and taste adds an interesting dimension.

Copper in color with maybe an inch of short-lived head. Semi-translucent. Both the head and clarity seem a little off for a Vienna lager. That said, I don't think I've ever had a smoked Vienna Lager, so who knows.
Aroma is great. Sweet malts and just enough smoke to be intriguing. Taste largely follows the nose, and maintains a nice balance. The smoke is definitely present, and if you don't like smoked beers you certainly won't like this one, but if you do like some smoke in your beer (as I do), this is really nice. Fairly light in body and plenty smooth. Very enjoyable.

Pours a clear golden amber color with a thin beige head . Smell is light campfire smoke with caramel bread and nuts. Taste is great it has toasted malts that mix with smoked malts with caramel sweetness then some toasted nutty flavors. Smooth caramel and smoke in the finish. Mouth feel is sweet with smoke and caramel also a fair amount of hops. Outstanding.
