Jul 13, 2006 Thanks to Humulone Red for the bottle! 12 oz bottle. Dark brown with nice head. Good amount of smoke in the aroma. Flavor is well balanced with roastiness and smoke. Goes down easy....good beer. Brings back memories of Bamberg.

Jun 22, 2006 (05.15.06) One pint, 6 oz brown bottle from DiCarlo’s, Mundelein, IL. Poured opaque brown black with small off-white head. No discernable carbonation. Smoky roasted malt aroma. Medium bodied porter that starts with light malt sweetness and smoke, roasted malt, fruit (raisins), expresso flavors. Finished dry with light roasted malt fade. Smooth, rich, and complex flavor character. Delicious.

Jun 15, 2006 Smells like smoked meat and coffee. Jet black with nice initial head. Initial flavor is smokey coffee. Some sourness/tanginess as it warms. Finish is chewy and dry. Overall good, but not overly complex- smokey flavor that settles into an average porter.

Jun 1, 2006 Sampled at Noogfest-2. Pours dark chocolate brown. VERY smokey aroma that starts to take on a fishy hint. The flavor is toasted malts, smokey cedar wood, very light sweetness. Creamy light body. While this is OK, I could never drink an entire glass or bottle of this smoked stuff. It’s too much for me.
