Tap at Dryhop. Opaque brown-black body. Creamy, steady beige head. Creamy smoked chocolate flavor. The juniper gives it a Christmas Ale, spiced feel. Mellow, pretty easy for a Belgian style beer. A little heavy on the specialty malts, has a slick sugary feel. Baker’s chocolate, doughy brown sweetness. A touch oily, almost leading into an Eastern European feel. Pretty decent overall, but odd stylistically.

Enjoyed on tap at DryHop Brewers in Chicago, IL. My buddy enjoyed this one and there was some run-off that the bartender graciously sent my way, and I’m happy that he did. I thought this was a fantastic smokey Belgian ale, dominated by smoke, chocolate, and Belgian ale yeast with a heavy emphasis on the smoke. Very good.
