Sailor Hagars Sherpa Smoked Porter

Formerly brewed at Sailor Hagars (no longer brewing - see Howe Sound)
Style: Smoked
North Vancouver, Canada

Dark red appearance. Nose is of smoked malt and somehow a touch of fruit. Body is nicely smoked with an oily mouthfeel. Touches of roast are also prevalent. Good amount of alcohol, but overall comes up a bit light. Nice smoked beer nonetheless.

The first time I had this it wasn’t very smokey, but had some nice leafy hop flavours. The second and all subsequent times those hop notes were gone, but we had a dry smokiness and burnt notes in their place.
