Given the success of this new beer during this event, the brewery started to produce it for all its consumers. Amber-coloured organic beer, dry and bitter with a smoky (or more specifically peaty) note in taste and flavour. This phenolic characteristic is obtained by using a low percentage of malt specially dried with Scottish peat (whisky malt).

Hazy copper colour with lasting head. Earthy. Noticeably malty. Whisky taste. Easy to drink. Full and flavoursome. Great session beer.

Bottle. Muddy amber. I'm a sucker for smoky beers and this is certainly a bacon fest. Bit thinner than I'd like and the ashiness could linger longer.

Bottle from Dupont. Hazy golden orange, low head. Estery nose, lightly smoky, apricots, touch of cheese. Slightly more smoky, still estery, more than their saison, slightly phenolic, bread. Bit of orange. Soft, silky. Somewhat soft finish. Interesting and pretty nice.

Bottle from a Carrefour in Bruges. Pours hazy golden with a big, foamy, white head. The aroma contains hops, spices, yeast, smoke, barley, grass, bread, some banana and iron. It tastes light sweet and medium herbal bitter with a short, hoppy, dry, slightly metallic finish. Medium body, slick/watery texture, lively carbonation. Not sure about this one. It’s positively complex, yet whilst tasting I’m getting more of the ’organic’ basis of malt whisky than actual peatiness. So in terms of taste it’s very much an organic beer, which I can’t fully appreciate. I enjoyed it for a while but a sample would have sufficed.
