330ml bottle, L082, from Vinmonopolet Langnes. The deep brownish pour reveals a dense, off-white head leaving rich lacing on the glass. Prominent chocolate malty aroma, nicely smoked. Malt-driven taste character of smoke malts, liquorice, chocolate and a coffee bite. Mid-dry malty ending. Well bodied. Lovely. (Tromsø 20.05.2018).

Flaske fra Vinmonopolet Tromsø Langnes. Drukket på Bergstua. Svart. Lavt skum med litt farge. Daler raskt. Tynn lacing. God baconaroma. Smaken torv & bacon. Balansert. Røykpreget avslutning.

Cask at Archie’s, Aberdeen for the MTB event. It pours darkest brown, near black with a thick, dense, light tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, bitter - sweet, juicy meaty smoke, smoked ham, treacle, maple glazed donut and candy. The taste is initially smooth, bitter - sweet, creamy roasted malt, earthy, cacao, coffee grounds, good smoked character, smoked meat, cracked black pepper, dried berry, treacle with a smooth, smoked finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Great condition. Brilliant balance and high drinkability. Probably one of the best smoked beers I have had. Could definitely drink a few pints, which I can’t usually say about this style.

On cask at the Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - opaque black with a lovely fawn head. Nose - smoke, earth, honeycomb. Prunes. Light charcoal and liquorice. Taste - a lovely blend of smoke, prunes and honeycomb which is quite unusual. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry crunchy finish. Overall - lovely. Easily the best from these guys.
