Commercial Description:
Our Smoked Porter is a robust London style porter with a deep chocolate/ruby color and the subtle accent of hardwood smoked malt. This distinctive beer is brewed using no less than seven different varieties of premium European malted barley, resulting in a complex and full bodied beer characterized by hints of chocolate, coffee, caramel and beechwood smoke. The big malty finish to this beer is balanced by a solid hop bitterness and the refined English aroma and flavor of premium Goldings finishing hops.

355ml bottle. Dark brown body with a nice beige head. Aroma is bitter malty with a pleasant hint of acidity (cellarnote). Flavor is a very pleasant mix of bitter chocolate malt and wild yeast. Full body and long finish.

Bottle courtesy of sloth. Pours brown with a thin tan head. Smells of chocolate, spice, brown sugar. Tastes of chocolate, cherries, hints of roasted malt.

Pours a nice dark caramelly brown, topped with a whispy tan head. Strong malt aroma, lots of coffee, and some green olives. Taste is mostly coffee and dark chocolate, and the alcohol is definitely apparent. Silky and oily mouthfeel, with a nice medium body. It has a bitter chocolate finish that unfortunately does not linger...

Draft@dba. Twas’ a porter, was it not? Some coffee chox and all that. I didn’t think it was that great but who am I to argue with the godofconsensus?

Bottle. Pours an opaque dark brown with a creamy thin tan head that dissipates quickly and laces the glass slightly. Aroma was coffee and chocolately malt I did not detect any smoke character. Nice roast character some sweet notes pretty basic. Medium bodied with a dry roast lingering aftertaste.
