| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 23, 2009 Bottle. Pours black with a super thick tan head. Aroma of smoked meats, roasted malt, piney hops. Flavor of smoked meats (light smoked meats, not as smoky as I’d like) and a sweet malt finish. Palate is not as robust as I’d like but this is pretty tasty. Not my favorite smoked, but up there.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 16, 2009 Bottel 650 ml from systembolget Sweden. Super nice smoke aroma with some liqurich, dark chocolates and caramell tones. Big light brown head over a dark amber brown ale. The head dissapears rather fast to a thin lace. Thick smoke taste with to much smoked burnt malts for a porter, much more like a stoute in it’s taste. A very big body but not to much sweetnes. This is a litle to overpowering beer to have a big drinkability. I love to just sit and smell this and have small sips, but a bottle containing 650 ml, more that an english pint gets a little bit to much. I would have liked this beer better in a small 25-33 cl bottle. IndianaRed (1555), Boise, Idaho, USA
