This bier (x2) was my nightcap during a session of quaffing with Alewife, Artied2 and his friend Kathy.

From the tap into a shaker pint glass, it poured a deep, dark chestnut hue. Topped by a thin, fine, tan head, it also aroused a bit of lace to stick around. Aroma gave off a smidge of semi-sweetness, some roastiness, and a mild addition of smokiness. It was a fairly smooth bier on the tongue, and the body was almost, but not quite, medium.

Flavor starts off with a roasty character, though not at all bitter. More semi-sweet, with a hint of chocolate also present. Hopping was exceedingly light, with only a suggestion of florality coming into play. The smoked aspect is subtle at first, but as the bier warms it becomes increasingly evident. An easy quaffer, and fairly good, overall.

Prosit!!
