bottle from Darts Farm. Deep brown with a creamy off-white to beige head, lovely and promising smoky nose. Malty start with dark, roasted malts, a good amount of smoke and a chocolatey-bitter finish. Smooth and velvety on the palate. Delicious!

On tap at Craft Beer Covent Garden. Clear russet colour lasting beige head. Definite smoke on aroma. Bonfire and light smoke sausage. The body is thin for a 6% beer. And the smoke verges on the tcp. OK but nowhere close to Spezial or Schlenkerla.

Bottle. Amber beer with a strong but soon disappearing head. The aroma is smokey with some maltiness, and the flavour is bitter and smokey with a creamyness about it. Overall a nice smoked and malty beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

A surprisingly light colour, a reddish copper, a head is medium and blond. Aroma is very good, smoked ham, some tar, malts in the background. Taste has malts, smoke and some smoked ham. Medium bodied, medium carbonation. Smoked malts are too mild, more intensive flavours would be better. Anyway, good and easy.
