This Smoked Extra Stout Porter was developed on the occasion of the double anniversary of SNAB. Brown Porter, our very first beer, has been a symbol of SNAB for two decades. With Roock we pay homage to this classic style with an XX version, known since 1820 as Extra Stout Porter to indicate the stronger version. By using smoked barley, USA hops and yeast, a distinctive combination was created that gives a complex beer with a distinct smoke flavor.

Pours a black colour with a tan head. Smells like smoked eel. Aroma of smoked eel, roasted malts, dark fruit, smoked ham. Taste is smoky, rather mild smoke I’d say. Carbonation is a bit heavy for this type of brew. Palate is a bit light, I wish this had more body.

Tap at 6th Noord-Holland Bierfestival, Alkmaar: Very dark brown brew with an roasted malts, coffee, and chocolate and liqourice taste and hints of "Bambergian Smokiness". And the finish is well blanced bitter.

Corked bottle. Deep dark brown color. Smoked malt and licorice in the aroma. Malty roasty smoky flavor with pear drups and citrus. Thinnish. Pleasant tasty beer.

Thnx to Kane. Pours clear, very dark brown. Small white head. Smell is bit bitter, some chocolate, mild smoke. Taste is sharp, bit bitter, mild smoke, some dark malt-sweetness. Rather thin. Ok carbo. Balanced smoked.

330ml bottle. Minimally clody, mahogany colour with ruby red glimmer and average, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, beige head. Sweetish malty, smoky aroma, hints of tomato barbecue marinade, oak ashes, chocolate malty background, hints of dark chocolate, a touch of liquorice. Taste is chocolately malty with subtle sweetness, mild smoky, bitter hoppy overtones, some liquorice. Extremely nice.
