Smoked Old World IPA

From a 355ml can on 24/10/2020 ( shared with Butz). Pours a reasonably clear deep golden with a smallish head. Has a big smoky bacon nose. The flavour is dominated by bacon against a caramel malt background, finishing with a medium slightly lingering hop bitterness, and a good dash of campfire ash, which balances things out nicely. The mouthfeel is slick, the carbonation moderate. A very nicely done smoked beer.

Can. I'm a huge fan of smoked beers. The smokier the better. This one gets halfway there. Needs more bacon.

Pours dark amber with a large lasting off-white head.Nose shows caramel, smoked malt, spicy and herbal hops.Flavours include more smoked malt, a bit of caramel hiding underneath, grassy and spicy hops along with an assertive but non-descript lingering bitterness in the finish.

A rich, malty, smoked IPA Really enjoyable with notes of honey, resin, coriander, pine, peat and smoke. Very nice body, with the peat and pine shining through. The alcohol burns a little down the throat, but that's the only criticism.
