Une domination des accents fumés avec un fond chocolaté font office d’olfactif. La mousse accapare plus que les trois quarts du verre et se veut beaucoup trop importante. Le liquide est brun aux reflets roux et partiellement voilé. La bouche se présente fumée mais un peu moins que l’olfactif. Présence de chocolat évidente, houblons épicés en arrière-plan, café et très subtils esters fruités. Le fumé est quand même moins agaçant que dans certaines autres bières de ce style. On y décèle un certain équilibre entre la bière de base et le fumé. O:6.75 V:2.84 G:7.56 C:4.26 G:12.57 T:33.98

Lots of smoke here, some peat. Black pour with decent head. A hint of caramel. Bitter finish with a touch of tang. Bottle from a market in Inverness.

Clean copper colour with an amber highlights with a big frothy light beige head, good retention and some nice thick foamy lacing patches. Nicely blended smoky aromas over the roasted malts, caramel, chocolates ones as well and hints of coffee. The smokiness continues in the taste with some fruitiness, light sweetness from the malt base. Enough hops to cut the richness, thickness of the brew, helping a lot for the style. Gets a little hazy with every pour. Almost a refreshing version of a smoked ale with nothing being offensive, too much.

330ml bottle. Pours dark brown with a tall beige head. Aroma is smoked wood, iodine, malt. Taste is smoky, woody, dried fruit. Medium bitter finish. Medium bodied. Feels overcarbonated. Perhaps another bad bottle from Windswept.

330ml bottle Sophie's Beer Store. Dark brown appearance, good beige head. Marvellously smoky aroma, continuing to taste hinting at a mild creaminess. Medium bodied. Vibrant smoky character, lovely full body with smooth textures. Very good indeed.
