A lightly smoked coffee porter made with a touch of German beechwood smoked malt as well as high quality English malts to create a chocolaty, roasty, base beer. Then, add two pounds of Sightglass Colombian Finca Madrigal coffee per barrel for an intense but refined coffee character.

Aroma is dominated by nice coffee with some good chocolate and roast character. Some light nuttiness with some faint smoke. Little yeast character, only some faint dark fruit esters. Pours black with some brown highlights and a small, moderately thick tan head that recedes to the edges where it lingers. Flavor is rather chocolate forward with some light roast and medium light sweetness. Lots of coffee character with a nice espresso note. Some light nuttiness with some faint dark fruit notes, mostly plum. Really light smoke character with moderate bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and slightly sticky with moderate carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really great porter with some great coffee character and light smoke notes. I really expected more smoke, but am glad that wasnβt the case. This beer is delicious.

Great mix of smoke and coffee. Really matches name. Pours black with good head and lacing. A little too much coffee but still super well integrated. Bitter finish. Creamy texture. Thanks to dude for growler taste of this.
