Taster at AleSmith. Pours dark brown with a medium brown creamy head and nice lacing. Aroma is smoke, wood, with something a bit odd that I can’t place. Flavor is about the same with light cocoa and nutty notes coming through. Full bodied and creamy in the mouth.

Poured up on tap at GABF 2012 with a mahogany body supporting a thin tan head of foam. The aroma offers up malt roastiness, a little bit of dark roasted malts and then not really too much else. Overall sort of a mild aroma. The taste is pretty rich with dark roasted malts, a little bit of molasses, some earthy malts and then sort of burnt malts tossed in there too. It seems to get a touch minerally into the after taste. It also picks up a slight tart red wine like off note from time to time.

Poured up on tap at GABF 2012 with a clear gold body that supports an off white head of foam. The aroma has a pleasing mix of smooth smoky rauch malts and malt sweetness. Alright, cool. The taste is oh yeah smooth silky smoky goodness. It goes from modest smokiness to sort of greasy bacon-y pork but it doesn’t really get anywhere near campfire smoldering ash. To midway for a moment there a get a little bit of hop bitterness and then the yummy smooth rauch-ness takes over and takes this into the finish. This is just terrific! Wow.
