OFallon Smoked Porter

Brewed by OFallon Brewery
Style: Smoked
OFallon, Missouri USA

12-oz. bottle from tjthresh. Pours molasses black with a fizzy and patchy tan head. Aroma is smoked meats (beef, turkey), roasted nutty malt and leathery yeast. Mild sweetness, light chocolate milk, dark roasted malt, trace yeast. Dark bodied and thin, oily palate.

Smoke, chocolate and wood aromas-toasted malt and chocolate flavors. Sampled this in Lake of the Ozarks after an afternoon of jetskiing and swimming very nice porter to kick back with while grilling.

Best beer of the 4 Ofallon beers I’ve tried. smokey,roasty, chocolate in a very well balanced porter. One of the better Porters I’ve had in a long time. A definite must have if you live in or are passing by the Midwest. Great beer.

Nose of light pine smoke with a little coffee malt thrown in.Transparent dark brown with a medium, lasting tan head; flavor shows strong smoke with a tuny bit of coffee and malt with a small hop finish.

The smoke arroma came through right from the start. Pours with an almost black color topped bya tan head. Thin mouthfeel with toasty malt flavors and the overall cloak of smoke. I can see why this is an award winning beer.

Dark black color. Smell of coffee, smoke, vanilla and chocolate. Chalky/peptobismal mint taste with some roasted coffee and some hops. Smoke flavor is present also. A different taste to me.

Pours a dark dark brown to near black with a small bubbled tan head. This thing looks more like a stout than a porter. This beer also smells more like bacon than a beer. There’s a good deal of smoke, (in the way bacon is smoky) and roast with hints of chocolate and wood. Feels like a stout in the mouth as well. Smooth and creamy with little carbonation. The flavors come together more pleasantly than the aroma. Sweet chocolate malt accompanies the primary smokey character. There’s again, also a good deal of roast, providing most of the lingering bitter finish. This beer is practically devoid of hops, though it is not necessarily out of balance given the roast and smoke to counter the relatively mellow sweetness.

BLack/brown color with a small dense light brown head. It has a deep smoky aroma with just a hint of chocolate and woodyness. Flavor almost identical- smoky malty, roasty, sweet, medium bodied. There is a pretty strong lingering sweetness as well.
