A smoked rye maple porter. A collaboration with Pappy’s Smoke House.

Smoked Pigasus is a robust and delicious porter brewed with rye, smoked malt, and maple syrup. the maple syrup provides a perfect balance for the smoked malt. Smoked Pigasus pours a deep mahogany with aromas of chocolate, smoke, and caramel. A big thank to Pappy’s Smokehouse!

Bottle, from notes. Smoky Roasty malts dominate. Hints of coffee and chocolate, I’m getting the rye but getting zero on the maple syrup.

Pours deep mahogany tinged brown into an English pint. Mocha micro head with good retention recedes leaving trailing sheets to coat surface. Sweet smoke and milk chocolate aromas. Dry with chocolate and maple upfront turning to mild smoke before the lasting espresso finish.

Bottle. Pours a near clear dark brown with a tan head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a nice combination of rye, sweet maple and a bit of smokiness. Flavor starts with a rich sweet maple note that mellows slightly to allow a bit of rye and smoke.

Sample at Bridge Tap House & Wine Bar. The beer is a dark brown color with a medium foamy light beige head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of smoked malt, caramel and coffee. Light to medium body with a roasty character and flavors of charred malt, coffee and dark chocolate. The finish is subtly smoked with a burnt malt aftertaste. Above average Smoked overall.

4 oz draft pour at Bier Station in Kansas City, Missouri. The pour is a hazed brown with a smallish light khaki head. The aroma is soft char along with a sweet cocoa odor. The taste is the sweet cocoa up front, along with maple syrup and then turning toward a soft char roast. Nice balance, clean flavors. The palate is medium bodied with soft carbonation and a dry mineral chalk finish. Gentle smoked beer, nicely made - though a bit sweet for my personal taste.

Pour is a dark red with a small tan head. Aroma is a slight smoke with a little vanilla in there. Flavor is sweet malt with some vanilla sweetness an again a very minor smoke. A very minor smoked beer and kind of sweet with some blandness
