22 oz. bottle purchased at Village Market, Hampton Falls. Deep brown color in my pint glass. Very thin beige head that left light lace. Smoke on the nose for sure! Flavors of coca powder, chocolate, mild traces of toffee and smoke throughout the sip. Mild lingering smoke after the sip. Soft level of carbonation with a Medium body. I have to admit, smoked is NOT something I drink often. Not a style I normally enjoy. But Throwback has one here that I can share with a friend and not be put off.

Bottle thanks to PhatDog1. Pours black with tan head. Nose is mostly peanuts - shells and all- and organic peanut butter with some cocoa, roasted chocolate and toasted black malt. Body is on the lighter side of medium for the style. Dry roasted peanut finish. Nose and taste is over 90% peanut. The most peanut forward beer I’ve ever had. Overall, I really enjoyed drinking this beer. If the body were a little thicker and the roasted chocolate malts were more pronounced this would be a real winner. That said, while I only rated this a 3.6, I’d rather drink it than a lot of imperials that I’ve rated a 3.8/3.9, so I definitely recommend this.

Bottle courtesy of AirForceHops. Smoky maple, chocolate, and creamy mocha aroma. Deep mahogany with a moderate tan head. Maple, coffee malt, caramel, and earthy ash flavor. Medium body and carbonation. My family runs a small maple syrup operation, so I’m all about the maple. This is an interpretation of a porter that works well for me.

Pours a lightly hazy medium golden straw color with a huge fluffy bone white head that persists forever. Smells of clove and other assorted yeasty esters along with a sweet honey like malt and a mild wheat spice aroma. The flavor is sharp with a hit of fruity tart with a solid dose of clove. Light apple and cherry fruits with a light sweet light sugary malt flavor. Medium body with a spirited level of carbonation and a sharp sweet tart mouthfeel. Decent brew, I could certainly entertain the thought of drinking this on a warm day.

22 oz. bottle. Used a pilsner glass. Nose is all Pepper. The taste is mild, bready malt with a blast of jalapeño. And I mean a BLAST! Damn, I really respect the women brewing beer at Throwback but for me; this beer is one dimensional and kind of unpleasant. I don’t like drinking jalapeño water. Sorry Nicole, I can’t buy another bottle of this.
