Definitely a tasty beer. I wasn’t sure about ’smoke beer’, but this laid all fears to rest. My favorite smoke beer of the 4 or 5 I’ve tried thus far.

This beer gets points for uniqueness. Recusant campfire aroma emitted from a healthy dirty white head atop a deep and shiny brown-orange body. Flavor lingers on the palate for minutes. I suspect this beer would be great for cooking chilis and other bbq-esque dishes.

Pours brown with a medium, lasting tan head. Huge bacon and oak aroma. Taste is more sweet, though balanced. Clean malts at the start with a nice smokey bacon finish. Medium feel. Nice stuff.

Lovely smokey aroma and poured deep reddish brown with a nice creamy head that pretty much disappeared immediately. Yummy smokey and meaty flavor with a lingering aftertaste like you just ate a chunk of smoked gouda cheese, May not sound too appealing but it is indeed a very very good and enjoyable brew. It would probably be great with grilled meat..

Bottle from BevMo (E. Tucson) - Pours a clear brown color with a 3/4 finger thick light tan head that faded pretty quick. Faint spotty lacing. Aroma is smoked malt (bacon). Flavor is lightly sweetened smoked malt. Medium body. Surprisingly, the smokiness doesn’t linger in the aftertaste. A good smoked beer.

Bottle: I still don’t know what to make of this, fortunatly I’ve got the Urbock and Weizen to try as well. Pours a nice mahogany color. Aroma was smoked bacon. Flavor was very similar, though there was a little sweetness that came through. It was very interesting. And I look foward to the others. I’m just not sure if it’s for me.

#300 - from City Beer Store in S.F. Poured a rich dark brown in a weizen glass with a nice light tan head. Good lacing too. Smell was very reminiscent of salted and peppered beef jerky and smoked bbq, and although it was very obvious, it wasn’t as extremely overpowering or offensive as I feared. I found it extremely enticing and the taste was not a letdown either. The base of the beer itself was smooth, perfectly malty and sweet with a touch of lingering smokiness and light bitterness in the finish. It was very full flavored, not overdone and perfectly crisp from the carbonation, and I was shocked at how drinkable this stuff was. I expected this to be a letdown b/c I was quite excited to try it, but I was very pleasantly surprised. Very good, and I can’t wait to try the other 2 varieties.
