The starting beer is a classic Porter added with Tuscan Kentucky tobacco leaves, the same ones that are used to make traditional Italian cigars. The result is a very dark beer with very rich aromas of tobacco, spices and walnut husks. The mouthfeel and palate deliver roasty notes, with a slight acidity and the tobacco offers a peppery and almost hot feeling.

Kicsi, gyorsan olvadó hab, fekete szín. Csokis, kakaós illat. Selymes, csokis, kakaós ízvilág, egy pici szilvás, dohányos aromával. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, enyhén keserű. Nagyon finom, jól csúszó, jó egyensúlyú sör.

At BBF, opaque black color, earthy aroma with hints of coffee and light charred notes, flavor of metal, smoke and coffee. Drinkable But not that great.

Draft @ Borefts 2016. Shared with RB Belgian crew. Brune foncée, col beige assez crémeux et tenace. Arôme au nez plaisant alternant belles notes malts, effluves de feuilles de tabac avec un léger fumé arrivant et titillant les nasaux. Petit côté fruité noir avec un malt cara pâle et léger chocolaté. Palais est malté, pâle, carta finement fumé avec un petit bémol pour être servie trop froide ce qui enlève de ce caractère de tabac mais qui reste cependant bien présent. Touche de fruits noirs, fini sec. Le tout s’apparente presque plus à une Schwarze que un porter.

Sampled from tap at Borefts 2016. Clear, dark red to black with a beige head. Roasty-malty aroma of dark chocolate, hard roasted coffee, some licorice and ash. Sweetish, moderately roasty-malty taste of coffee, dark chocolate, caramel and some licorice, followed by a short, slightly bitter, moderately dry finish. Medium body, slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!

Tobacco clearly presents, which adds an interesting but strangely tasty layer. Quite sweet and herbal, lightly creamy. Fun!
