Pours deep reddish amber with a large lasting head.Nose shows floral, herbal, pine and resinous hops almost covered by rich smokey malt. Best of both worlds!Flavours include smokey malt along with some caramel sweetness and a bit of pine. Some floral hops too. Good balance

Thanks Van, you da man!
This was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a dark ruddy burnt orange to ruddy brown color with a thin foamy white head that died off fairly quickly. Light speckled run off of lace.
The aroma had a sweet meatiness to it, but not necessarily bacon. Seemed to have a light brown sugary backbone to it. Barbeque sauce, somewhat. Some smoke.
The flavor yields to the sweet meatiness. Sly meaty aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a smooth chewy sort of feel to it. Moderate carbonation. Feels good for the most part.
Overall, decent smoked beer, but definitely different than other smoked beers I had.
