Gets the style pretty well. Had some good and meaty dark malts, nice restrained smoke, burnt toffee, roast, a little ash, cooked ham, nips of raisin. Could maybe do with a touch more bitterness. But overall it’s smooth and well drinkable.

Very basic stuff. Notes of sugary sun-kissed bread, some grain, jammy citrus accents. So so balance, a hint of pine needle, oranges, bready malts. Drinkable but not anything special.

330ml bottle in Pays Basaque after completing the French Divide. Pours a clear pale gold, frothy white head. Pleasant malty blonde with a nice bittersweet bite.

2 February 2025. New Year Tasting with Tim & Anke - cheers! Can from V and B Nanterre.
A: cloudy black, stable, foamy, beige head.
A: charcoal, toast, earth, fried mushroom, grapefruit peel.
T: sweetish brambleberry, bitter toast, grapefruit, bit umami.
F: earthy & piney hops, bitter grapefruit, roasted coffee, toast.
P: medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation.
Quite good, despite the middle-of-the-road hop profile. Nice to see that a relatively niche beer style (and still relatively well executed at that) was chosen to celebrate a launch in one of the most commercial game series ever.

Can: Poured a clear black color porter with a large off-brown foamy head with OK retention and some light lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with some smoked notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate malt notes with some smoked malt and light residual sugar notes. Body is thin with good carbonation. Enjoyable smoked porter with easy drinking features.
