Pours slightly cloudy honey with thin white head (looks terribly similar to the IPA). Smells of a refreshing apricot, passion fruit nectar with some acorn on the side. A hint of zesty phenol activity, some interesting yeast must have been involved. Tastes a bit belgian with a mild refreshing aftertaste of fruit salad juice and mild lagerish hops. bit of syrup feel. Overall: Interesting, but not amazing, I wouldn’t get it again, at least not for a while

Nov 24, 2009 22oz Bottle. Aroma is subtle, with a waft of honeyed cereal and some alcohol. Pours a fuming, brilliant orange-gold, with plenty of lacy and foamy off-white head. Flavor bounces around the room, with hot alcohols, somewhat icky yeast byproducts, a lot of sugar and some hop flavor. Jumbled. Body is a good bit too sticky and for me, the alcohols are much too forward. Way too boozy. Bitterness comes in a form that’s a bit metallic and somehow not well accounted for. A little sloppy, overall, lacking the crisp lagering quality I look for this style.

Oct 26, 2009 A clear hazelnut color with a small beige head that becomes blotchy. Fruity and grainy aroma. Interesting flavors. Wood flavor, banana, medicinal, alcohol and a nice mix of hops (especially for the style). This is a sweet beer. A malty finish. This beer is all over the place which, to me, is always a fun drinking experience. Long lasting aftertaste is spicy hops.

Oct 23, 2009 I had heard good things about Smutty but had never tried, now I’m looking for more. Pours a hazy orangish yellow. Aroma is malt and hop. Big frothy head that spilled on my table. Taste was slightly citrus, slightly malt and slightly hop. My only complaint is that the hop isn’t more prevalent but overall this is a fine beer.

Oct 21, 2009 Pours a hazy amber orange color with a 1.5 finger frothy yellowish beige head that slowly fades into a lasting ring that leaves sporadic spots of lace.
Slightly roasted caramel malt aroma with hints of maple and floral hops.
Very quaffable, creamy medium body with a huge roasted malt presence balanced out by a prominent earthy floral hop flavor. Hints of chocolate, caramel, toast, hazelnut and slight alcohol warmth. The bitterness of the hops linger over the sweet malt body into a slightly dry finish.

Oct 12, 2009 Pours a bright hazy golden with lots of bubbles and a big head. The aroma is floral anc lightly grainy with a herbal nature and some good honey like malty sweetness. Much of the same can be said about the flavor except to say that it is hoppy. The herbal and honey notes are delicious but this finishes particularly dry for the style, a delicious interpretation of the style.
