Bottle thanks to mike for sharing. Brown ale with tan head. Smells like bacon,. Taste is of dark malts smoked flavors, and ends again with bacon would love to see a bbq with as part of the main marinade. Definitely a different than normal beer.

My new love for Islay Single Malts should influence my love for this beer. Well, the smoke her is nothing like the peat bombs that I crave - a different beast all together. Deep chestnut brown, light tan head is thin, nice ropy lacing. The aroma is a lot of smoke. Soooo much smoke.. but this time, unlike years ago, I can go beyond and see what else this beer has to offer. Burning logs that have had a bucket of water tossed on them, lots of salt.. in fact this beer is very beef jerky. Damn! That is it! There is also an underlying fruit that may be plum? So much salt - that is really making this beer awesome for me. The flavour is immediately NOT smoke. Serious. Plums I think hit first or something similar... have I just killed my taste buds? The smoke is much more mellow on the taste. My breath, however, will tell a different story. A story that includes 3 packs of cigarettes. Notable hops hit early on as well. A milder version of liquid smoke makes an appearance finally, solid bitterness... very solid - more than I expected. Lots of malts now, almost a dull chocolate but I’m drunk so who really knows what I’m tasting. More fruit that is a bit different now, ash, tobacco, tons of roasted malts.. what else? kitchen sink. Light medium bodied, a bit thin on a couple of sips but other than that its smooth and soft with some lingering bitterness shadow and what I’m assuming is a months worth of going to a Blues bar of smoke in my mouth. My dump tomorrow will be of epic proportion. Maybe I’ll just shit out a pack of Players. Very good beer. So much beyond that overwhelming smoke aroma. A real beer exists under that blanket. I could drink a ton of this in one sitting but I’d be divorced by mid morning at the latest. I love this beer.

Bottle. Smoked wood and tar in aroma. Unclear lightbrown colour with beige head. Smoked malt and nuts in flavour with nice bitterness. This must be a sailor beer.

poured brown with a small tan head aroma was nice and smokey flavor was smoke but the aftertaste was like i had a ashtray in my mouth and it wouldnt go away. definetly not my kinda smoked beer...

bevuta brewpub.buona persistenza della schiuma, buono olfatto pieno di sentori di affumicatura e malto.al gusto belle note di tabacco e carammello ben bilanciate con l’alcol.spezie varie.

Bottle. Poured a dark coppery brown with a fluffy tan head and lotsa lacing. Nose is smoky and malty and has a distinctive smell of smoked bacon. This is the first rauchbier I have tried so I wasn’t too sure what to expect and while I was surprised by the aroma it was a pleasant surprise. Flavour is still smoky but not so meaty, malt blends harmoniously with notes of caramel, tobacco and spice. The smokiness is just about perfect, present but not overpowering. A really good beer, I have just been converted.
