This was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a dark chocolate milky looking color with a sly brown tint to it. A thin edged off white to white foamy head started and dissipated. Spotty lacing runs here and there.
The aroma starts off with some roasty coffee bean blending with some smoked malts. Sly sweet meat slides in to balance nicely.
The flavor starts sweet and leads to a nice balance of smoke. Meaty portion tends to blend subtly with a crisp sweet aftertaste. Nice sweet and smoky finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionably smooth sweet feel just rolling stealthily over my tongue. Beautifully and wonderfully done mouthfeel! Carbonation seems to hit spot on.
Overall, damn nice smoked porter, watch out Alaskan Brewing Company, looks like you have some competition with this one.

At a tasting, thanks, smallish creamy head, deep brown color, aroma of a smoke and rubber with some charred notes, flavor of smoke and heavily toasted bread with some dark chocolate, stingy carbonation. Nice enjoyable and quite mellow.
