Viven Smoked Porter is a fairly bitter porter beer, with a very smokey flavour. Accents of coffee and dark chocolate make for a powerful aroma in your glass.

7.5/10
Very subtly smoked. Quite hoppy, nicely roasted, more export stout than porter. Very solid.

Pours a dark brown colour with a frothy beige head, great retention and creamy lacing. Beautiful mild smokiness with roasted malts, hints of dark fruits and hints of vanilla. The taste has the roasted malts, fruits and light smoke in the finish. Alcohol is well-hidden. Easy to drink with not too much smokiness.

Bottle at Farmhouse Tap and Grill.
This ended up being poured into a flared tulip.
The appearance was a dark brown close to black color with a thin white foamy coated head. Dissipated at a nice pace. Filmy milky looking lace glossed the sides of the glass in a level coated fashion.
The smell started off with some sweet to roasty to meaty smooth creaminess up front. Light vanilla enters in as it warms to balance.
The taste was exceptionally smooth and sweet with a stellar amount of a creamy aftertaste and wet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a creamy to silky smooth feel sliding on my tongue. Nice and sessionable, ABV seems to barely hit.
Overall, smoked porter, definitely and I would love to have again.
