This beer comes from the Red Racer 'Across the Nation" 12 pack. Brewed by Barn Hammer Brewing in Winnipeg Manitoba. This is the first smoked beer style that I could actually finish. The smokiness isn't overwhelming and you can still tell the beer style is truly a saison.

Look: Slightly cloudy, golden colour. It looks like a proper saison. (Not sure where the amber name comes from?)
Smell: This beer smells amazing. It's smoky, yet full of sweetness and fruity scents. Seriously, I don't usually spend time smelling beers but this one smells really good.
Taste: Tastes of some fruitiness, I think Belgian yeasts and very light smokiness. Classic European saison taste profiles.
Feel: Feels like a normal beer. It's a liquid and I'm not a wine drinker.

Overall: Really great. I only write reviews for beers that I feel shock me in a good way, or in a very very bad way. I'm delighted to say that this beer is really well done and is quite unique. Not a session beer, but for a treat it really hits a home run.
