Undated bottle. Pours black, but with some brown highlights. Smell offers a lot of smoked ham, just a touch of stout malt. Chewy caramel taste with more smoke. A slight chile burn. Some more complex spice notes that could be from the rye malt. A bit of lactose seems to show up there. Happy to have finally popped my first To Øl beer.

Bottled. Black colour with a quite pale beige head. Aroma is toffee, some alcohol, sweet malts and mild toasted notes. Flavour is espresso, some slight smoked wet wood, chocolate and mild toffeeish notes. Mellow and not all too much smoke to it actually.

Tap @ Mikkeller Bar Aarhus. Pours oily pitch black, small light brown head. Aroma is sweet, roasty bitter, chocolate, smokey, peaty, strong burned wood. Taste is about the same. Roasty bitter, sweet, roasty, peaty, smokey, burned wood. I don’t think I’ll ever get to like these heavily smoked beers, although this has some qualities I can definitely appreciate. Smoke just puts me off.

A a tasting ,many thanks, almost no head, opaque black color, smoked peaty aroma with dark bread, chocolate and vanila, flavor of dark fruits, charred wood with chocolate and aromatic coffee coming through and some vanila in the back, balanced and quite sour, suprisingly light bodied for the style. very good and complex, nice to sip leisurely.
