Bottle. A- Smoky, honey, subtle vanilla. A- Dark brown color, dark liquid, beige head. T- Toasted marshmallow, subtle honey, smoke, vanilla, dry, mild bitterness. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, roasty finish. O- Interesting beer. At first I thought this might be another take on a Smores beer which seems to be popular now. This was definitely more "campfire" like. At first you get that toasted marshmallow aroma and taste from the vanilla and honey with mild char notes. That quickly fades into a slightly bitter and dry roasted malt finish on the palate. Pretty solid.

Bottle from the box set. Dark brown with orange tints and a low head. Smoky nose, chocolate, vanilla. A bit of honey in the flavor, smoky vanilla, tasty but a bit thin.

Bottle shared by Jack, thanks! Pours a clear deep amber with a brown hue and a light brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has roasted malts and dark grains with some smoke and a bit of honey underlying. Flavor smoke and roasted malts supported by dark grains and a bit of honey.

Bottle: Deep, rubied-brown with a smooth beige head. Chocolate, charred wood scent. Taste is slightly bitter chocolate malt, some ash.....almost a bitter-sweet berry note, or maybe that's what the honey and smoke combo does for my taste buds.... Nicely different, nicely bodied.....very good.

On tap at Vultures Lane. Pours orange black. Chocolate, toffee, vanilla, honey, toast. Nice big body. Sweet and tasty.

Poured from bottle dated 4/19/17 light brown with a nice off white head. Aromas of vanilla, cinnamon honey and dark fruit. Taste is good and has a light mouth feel notes of smoke vanilla and roasted malt.

Part of the sampler pack. Pours dark brown with tan head. Taste is smoke with a sweetness in the background. Rich malt prevails as it warms.

12 oz. bottle shared by Chalumeaux. Dated 4-19-2017. Color is a medium brown with light carbonation. Aroma is honey, vanilla, mild smoke, and maybe chocolate. Flavor is light smoke, light coffee, and light oak. The body is decent for a porter and ends with a vanilla bean sweetness.

I feel like the few months in the fridge helped the ingredients marry well together. Based off of some of the awful beers in this years release, this was surprisingly decent.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle. Aroma has a medium light smoke note with moderate roast and light chocolate. Some toasted bread and dark caramel notes as well. Light vanilla and honey notes. Pours a dark brown that is almost black with a medium sized, thick, creamy, tan head that exhibits really nice retention. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with some moderately strong malt notes and a dry finish. Moderate roast and toasted bread notes with some lighter cracker, caramel and chocolate notes. Medium smoke that lingers a bit in the finish. Moderate bitterness that also lingers and seems to get stronger in the finish. Medium light honey notes and light vanilla. Mouthfeel is medium to medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Medium low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an interesting beer. I’m not sure it reminds me of smores, but it has some nice smoke notes to it. I wish the vanilla were a touch more prevalent but its still a nice smoked porter. The smoke seems to impart some sweetness upfront, but finishes dry and a bit astringent.
