Deep amber color with a nice foam. The aroma is of smoke, leather, dried fruits, pretty smooth beer with medium silky body.
The taste is smoky, bitter roasted malt and sweet caramel. Finish is malty, alcoholic and warm a very clean and tasty strong ale brewed with honey and peated malt.

Bottle. Dark amber color. Smoky, malty buttery aroma with a hint of tobacco. Malty buttery smoked beechwood flavor. Soft but persistant in the aftertaste.

Slightly hazy dark amber with a lasting, creamy off-white head. Caramel aroma with weak bacon notes. Sweet and malty flavour with phenolic notes, and a little alcohol. Funny enough idea, but I’m not a fan

Bottled.An unclear orange-brown beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of smoke, caramel, and malt. The flavor is sweet though with an edge of acidity and notes of smoke, malt, caramel, and oranges, leading to a bitter and burnt finish. Huge thanks to yespr for sharing.
