Poured into a lager glass, the appearance was a mildly dark brown color almost black with an eggshell white foamy two fingers worth of head. Dissipated to leave some stringy sticky lace.
The aroma had some bacon, sweet ham, earthy hop spice, dried leaves, sweet wood, roasted malts, hints of dark chocolate, and sweet dark bread.
The flavor blended finely between the sweet meatiness, earthy hop spice and the sweet portions of the dark chocolate. Took a little bit but the smoke did show up after a good deal of warming. Aftertaste was sweet meatiness (bacon to ham). Finish was smooth, sweet, roasty warming and somewhat meaty.
The palate was pillowy smooth along my tongue giving off a body approximately medium in stature. Pretty good as a sipper and the carbonation felt fine.
Overall, pretty good smoked lager even though I had to let it warm up a bit. I wonder if I had it too cold to start.

22oz bottle-pours tan-black. A-smoke/dark roasty malt. T-smoke/dark roasty malt.

Pours dark mahogany into a Sam glass. Tan head with good retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Sweet dark caramel and smoke aromas. Dark smoky chocolate upfront turning to a sweet middle before the dry, earthy finish
