6.6/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Bomber purchased to go from downtown location, labeled as "smoked up porter" - pours a fizzy dark brown - fairly substantial, soapy lace - aroma of roasted, nearly burnt malts, damp charred wood, blueberries, light smoke - flavor is rather sweet - strong roasted malt character, some char and mild smoke, and a light bitterness try to temper this, but it remains pretty dang sweet - some anise quality thrown in there - fairly creamy texture - not nearly enough smoke for my taste, and that sweetness starts to get to me after a while - light acidity on the tail end, despite the high sweetness - not great, but better than I was lead to expect fro this brewery.
