Smoked Porter. A complex, malty dark ale with a smooth roasty chocolate flavor, and just enough smoke character to let you know it’s there.

Draft: Black with a tan head. Chocolate, very light smoke aroma. Cola, honey-ham, coffee flavour... Fairly sweet light chocolate malt..... Pretty good, in general, but underwhelming per the style.

Draft. Wood smoke and chocolate malt aroma. Black with moderate head. Sweet astringent/weedy chocolate malt. Light smoky finish. Okay but not much smokiness.

Hand bottle gifted me by the brewer. Smoke, dark chocolate, dark fruit, and very light molasses aroma. Black brown with a small tan head. Moderate smoke, roasty coffee malt, chocolate, and ash flavor. Body on the light side of full, moderate carbonation.
