Brewed by McCashin Family Brewery in the style that is a Smoked
and they do that in good old Nelson, New Zealand
"A bold, malty ale that's both rich & dry. Notes of sweet spice and vanilla with a balanced bitterness & broad hop aroma. Moderately roasted and toffee malts, with a little smoked character, matured in American oak barrels"
I have then a Litre of a beer that is 4.6%, 4.8%, or even 5.6% ABV, seems a bit of a lottery, So I'm going with 4.6% which would mean that this 3.63 standard drink units, so this bottle is only around 360 calories all up. No idea how many IBU things this is on the scale of things though.

Selfie[/caption]It’s a bold, malty ale, rich and dry, with notes of sweet spice and vanilla, matured on American Oak for that distinctive smoky aftertaste. Originally crafted by Head Brewer Sam Wilson for Melbourne’s GABs 2013, the popularity of our Great Oak Red Ale has led to its return as part of our ‘limited release’ seasonal offerings, just in time to warm you up when the cooler weather kicks in.
And let me say that today is colder than a cold thing, for Auckland, where the most we get is heavy frost, and the occasional sleet \ graupel but not so much.
