A rich porter beer with a balanced smoky flavour and aroma. It brings to mind a clear starry night on the Alberta Prairie with the hint of a warm campfire.

473ml can. Pours a clear dark brown with red hue and a small, creamy, long lasting, beige head that leaves curtains of lace. Mild aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate and light smoke. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, caramel, dark chocolate, earth and light smoke in a dry, mild bitter, day-old coffee finish. Light to medium body with an oily to watery texture and soft carbonation. Could use more smoke.

Dark brown with a thin head. Really rich smokiness, with enough body to carry it, lots of intense sugars, bitterness. Drinks pretty big for 5.3%.

On tap at Bow River, pours a deep dark brown / near black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out gentle smoke, toasted malt, and some earthy notes. Flavour is fairly malty and smoky, with light roast, gentle smoke, some sweetness, and a little cocoa. Nice gentle campfire smoke pervading this. Good stuff.
