Pours a dark, caramel-brown, with mid-sized head. Aroma is leather, smoke, roasted grain. Flavors follow. Pretty smooth and crisp mouthfeel.

Draft at Holy Grale. Ebony pour with a half finger creamy beige head. Aroma is roasty, smoky and sweet. Taste gets sweet fast, fruity, cherries, smoky, roasty notes on the back end. Full, creamy, rich.

On tap at Republic, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is very malty, with plenty of caramel, bready malt, and a tiny hint of smoke. Flavour is more punchy in the smoke, with that nice mesquite character showing up, along with caramel, toffee and bready malt. Nice and malty, with just enough smoke to make this interesting. Good stuff.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours near black with a dark brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has roasted malts with a good amount of mesquite and dark grains backing. Flavor has heavy mesquite throughout with strong roasted malts and bitter dark grains backing.

Draft at the source. Dark brown color, beige head. Nice burnt bbq aroma. Taste is burnt brownies. Tasty.

At all pints north. Smoke is light. Heavy roast. Just a hint of smoke but it is dry. Could use more smoke aroma.
