bottle, via trade with glouglouburp. black color with scaly foam, aromas of strong smoke, maple syrup, flavors of smoke, barbq rib tips, peaty, slight metallic, bitter finish

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin brown head. The aroma has primary notes of chocolate, but also lighter notes of smoke, rope, and tar. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, beechwood smoke, and roasted malt, leading to a dry, roasted, and bitter finish.

Pours dark brown with minimal head. Aroma is very smoky, with notes of bacon, salt, and campfire. Flavor is quite nice- exceptionally smoky and roasty, very flavorful; unique and damn good.

Brown pour slight head. Aroma is loads of bacon and campfire with some salty, peaty notes. Flavor is also very smokey with certain bacon notes. sweet malt abounds with a touch of roast. PLeasant

Very dark brown pour with nearly no head. Aroma is loaded with (oddly enough) bacon, smoky peat, and an overall grand smoky and chalky nose. Flavor is very sweet with a backbone of bitter roast, and a definite smoky aspect. Sweet malt comes through as well. Palate is medium to full with very mild carbonation and a dry bitter malt finish.

Bottle thanks to glouglouburp!
Rich brown with a small bubbly tan head. Nose of smoke, chocolate, light roast, and hints of fruit and minor alcohol with warmth. The flavor is more disappointing, mainly roasted malt with some minor sweetness. Thin, watery body, nice finish is bitter roast elements and some chocolate. The porter outweighs the smoked character here, but it’s balanced enough to remain enjoyable.

[2099-20090419] 341mL bottle. Roasted sweet dry wood aroma. Hazy, dark brown body with a quick creamy tan head. Smoky dry wood embers flavour with full roasted malt. Full body. Nice smoky characteristics.
Overheard: "It’s beers like this I can appreciate a glass of but would prefer to cook with."
(w/ jerc, others)

"Rauchy" Tastes like someone dropped my tripple-porter in the bonfire. Incase you didn’t check out the label this beer is smoky which is good, but it can mask the porter a bit.
