Bottle in trade from Rastacoeur.Thanks David.This is a dark sunavabich.I could smell the smoke as I was pouring it into a glass.Also has a long note of tanned leather.That is a smoked brew,holy shit.Really smokey.Has a good mouthfeel but very one sided.

2004. Deep black body with a tan head, which is very small. Full of smoke everywhere, really overpowering, at least compared to the other smoked porters/stout sampled along side this one. Heavy char and smoke flavor, with some campfire woody flavors, like liking the burning campfire wood. Some cheese and meat notes in the nose at warmer temps.

Bottle acquire in trade with tiggmtl (thanks!). Poured a dark black with a large (4.5 finger) off white head that quickly dissipated. Aromas of chocolate, smoke, and roasted malts. Tastes of smoke, light chocolate, and dark fruits. Nice smoky quality to it. The body was a little on the thin side for me.

Verre de dégustation (provenant d’un fût) au Mondial de la Bière 2005 (Montréal, QC). Arôme: Odeur de chocolat, de caramel et de fumé. (A mon avis la fumée est moins présente que dans la version embouteillée). Apparence: Couleur noire opaque. Mince col beige. Fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de chocolat et de fumé. Court arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est plein avec une texture minérale. Fumé en arrière goût. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. (Rating #174)

Robe noire surmontée d’une mousse beige épaisse en dentelle qui persiste. Arômes de céréales, de fumé et de levures. Saveurs de chocolat, de café, de fumé, de sucre et de levures.

Bottle from Rastacouere. Pours a dark brown, almost black with a light tan head. Nose is moderately malty, chocolate, caramelish...with notes of smoke, ashtrays (in a good way), and vanilla (?). Taste is more sweet malts, some hop bitterness, coffee-ish, peaty-smoke, quite tasty. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately acidic, moderately bitter. Medium bodied, nice roasty bitter finish....I liked this more as I drank it. Thanks David!

Smoked bacon aroma, but not overpowering. Hints of sweet cocoa powder are also noticeable in the aroma. Mildly acidic feel to the aroma as well. Mostly opaque mahogany with a smallish tan head. Roasted chocolate to start, turning very burnt and roasty in flavor. Slight smoked bacon lurks throughout and makes a larger presence to finish. Somewhat dry finish. The middle is harsh, but the smoke is not overdone like the Schlenkerla beers.

bottle...Dark brown pour with a thin beige head. Smoke, roasted malt and cherries are the smells I pick up. Burnt malts, definite strong smoke character throughout. Subtle sweetness in the middle, nice depth of smoke. Mouthfeel is a little thin, although very silky. This is a nice brew.
