A clear dark brown porter with a thin moka head. Aroma is sweet caramel and chocolate, not very smokey but pleasant. In mouth, a good sweet chocolate, torrefied coffee, and definite smokey notes, not overwhelming, but interesting, light smokey bacon. Sustained burned toast bitterness. A good smoked porter.

12 oz bottle at the Downtown Bar and Grill. Poured very dark brown with some lacing. Aroma is very present - lots of smoke but some weird (cannot pinpoint) aroma behind that. Taste is all meaty smoke. I usually find smoked porters not smoked enough but this one is definitly a SMOKED porter. Finally something good out of Ithaca, as my friend said.

Has the appearance, carbonation and strong sweetness of a cola - if it weren’t for the smoke flavor, you might be able to fool me - smoke-flavored pepsi is the best description of this beer.
