A slow gusher at cellar temps so watch out.
It pours what looks to be a cloudy dark brown. +1 finger head of off white foam, really nice level of lacing.
It has a real fireplace like smell of smoke, perhaps mixed with some BBQ meats.
The smoke in the taste is like no other I’ve had. Super strong charred wood, and I think they left the paint on cuz I sure get a very chemical thing going on.
Medium body, pretty heavy handed with the carbonation, and the alcohol is out of control for me.
Okay, my first drain pour of 2015. :^( --- Beer merged from original tick of Tocatta Smoked Ale on 08 Jan 2015 at 16:53 - Score: 3
