The appearance was a mostly black color with a foamy off white head that dissipated at a good pace. Moderate lace.
The aroma had some leather, smoke/ash, some roasted malts and a light earthy/grassy hoppiness.
The flavor lead with the leather to smoke/ashy sweetness. Some sweet meat. Moderate amount of roast came in somewhat underneath. Light aftertaste of the smoke hitting the finish in the same way.
The feel was about medium bodied with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good and the ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, that’s a pretty good smoked beer. Don’t think it could compare to Alaskan’s, but hey, this is up there.

22 oz. bottle purchased at Top Shelf Brews. Nice looking brew. Dark brown the huge fluffy tan head that left massive retention. Aroma is caramel, roasted nuts and light smoke. Taste is sweet with the roasted nuttiness coming through in the middle with just a hint of campfire in the finish. Hints of chocolate malt. The roasted nut flavor is deep. Roasted grain backbone. Very smooth and easy to drink. The brewer really should brew this again next year. Much, much better than the standard Dippty Brown. A very nice drinkable brew.

Bottle from Bert’s Pours a solid dark brown with a decent sized very creamy tan head that sticks on to for a good long time. The aroma is heavy on the caramel and chocolate with hints of dark fruit. There is a bit of smoke in the nose, but it is very subtle. The flavor is light in the bacon heavy in the fruity flavor with lots of caramel brown sugar and chocolate. Medium body with a creamy silky mouthfeel and a moderate level of carbonation. Oddly for a double smoked double brown ale this one is not very smokey. That being said, I often find that smoked beer tends to be over the top with phenols whereas this beer uses the smoke to add a bit of character to a really nice brown ale.
