Was a bit apprehensive to try this beer, as I didn't think it would be my thing. How wrong I was, a wonderful beer, that I will be revisting soon. jaymobrown (1360), Chicago, Illinois, USA

It’s like tasting the inside of a smoke house! Perhaps great with any type of meat. I’ve had some other smoked beers, but this one the flavor definitely stands out. A nice dark color. Every sip leaves me guessing. I found this to be one of the most interesting beers in a long time. ucsbdude (68), Santa Barbara, California, USA

This was an excellent smoked beer with a smooth taste and wonderful appeal. The smokey flavor was evident but not over abundant. Fluffy beigh head with small frothy bubbles covers this dark brownish bock beer. Rich and creamy flavor with a malty undertone. Not overly sweet. Excellent palate with a great finish. I really loved this beer. brewbear (48), 3096 Oberbalm, Switzerland

The aroma is explosive, very burned and smoked. Great looks, dark with a small white head. Taste is also extremely smoked, a whole lot of meat, spices and malt!! Not exactly a session beer, but so wonderful and unique inbirraveritas (60), Budapest, Hungary

Meanwhile pouring, a nice, stiff, beige-coloured, head grows, which remains long.
Colour’s deep brown/mahogany, bubbleing is low-key.
The smell is smoky, mixed with some malty sweetness.
Taste is mild, the flavour is smoky, special, its body is pretty good, too.
Finish is light hoppy, dry and remains long.
A real special one, liked it!
