煙燻曼達琳娜

The smoke hits first but fades fast, leaving that mandarin citrus to brighten the finish—it’s a genuinely clever pairing. Poured it for my dad who hates fruity beers and even he went back for a second glass. Light enough for a warm evening but festive enough that I’m stocking up for December.

That mandarin note really comes through on the finish, and it plays off the smoke so well it's like a campfire with a citrus twist. Poured it for a friend who normally sticks to IPAs and even he was impressed. Crisp enough to have a second one without feeling heavy.

The beechwood smoke is the star here, but that mandarin hint keeps it light and makes it dangerously easy to sip through a whole evening. Poured it with dinner and it nailed that crisp, cozy Christmas market vibe without being heavy.
