Made With House-Smoked Barley

A robust porter brewed with malted barley that was smoked over Adler wood by our brewers on-site. Rich, smoky aromas greet your nose while flavors of dark chocolate, smoke, some roasted malt, and a bit of coffee hit the taste buds. Finishes nice and dry. Doobieously refreshing.

Sample at Brass Tap Polaris. Dark brown pour with a medium foamy beige head that recedes steadily to a film. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of smoked malt, chocolate and coffee. Light to medium body with flavors of charred malt, bittersweet chocolate, bacon and coffee. The finish is roasty with a burnt malt aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

On tap at the bocktown monaca. Yes, slight smoked bacon arom abut is that coming from the kitchen? Fairly dark. Almost black but it seems to be dark brown upon closer inspection. Smoked flavors from the start. Certainly a good example of its style. A little uneasy at times. Seems like the smoke was almost artificially added but I’m no expert, go figger. As with most smoked brews, quite one smokey sided. Bacon fried smoked bacon. Not impressed by this style but there ya have it.

Growler shared by John, thanks! Poured black with a brown head that lasted throughout the beer. Aroma was quite smokey with a note of bacon, chocolate and a good amount of roasted malt. Flavor began with roasted malt with growing smokiness and some backing bacon and chocolate. Surprisingly smooth on the tongue.
