Smoke (Smoked Porter)
Pours a very dark brown color with a small tan head that disappears fairly quickly and leaves a slight amount of lace. Aroma is pretty smoky as one would expect from a smoked porter. The smoke is almost hickory bacon like. There is also notes of dark fruit perhaps black cherries and dark chocolate. Taste is of course smoky as one would expect and seems stronger towards the finish of the beer. There is a good amount of roasted malt present with a dark roasted coffee like taste, and a slight cherry undertone with a subtle spiciness in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and just a bit more thin than I would prefer, not bad though. Ok drinkability, although I am not sure I would want to make a session of it because of its smokiness.
