Bottle shared with the crew,in late November, thanks R. Neat aroma - smoke, malt, very nice. Taste - holy crap, so much tobacco! I feel dirty just having tasted this! Like a beer from an ashtray. medium body. So earthy. Almost too much tobacco, but what an original and enjoyable creation.

Feb 21, 2010 750ml bottle (Bir&Fud, Rome) - said 8% on the label.
Big chocolate orange aroma. Really rich roasty body. Great roasty taste too. Carbonation pleasant, and a lovely smoothness to the palate. Finish has some green hops too. Delicious porter, no matter what strength it is.

Oct 26, 2009 Colore maron piuttosto scuro, poca schiuma molto rapida ad andarsene, aroma bello caffettoso, porter robusta e rotonda non stucchevole, decisamente una signora birra. Complimenti

Sep 7, 2009 @ Bir and Fud in Rome. According to their menu the beer is actually listed as 7% ABV. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of smoke, malt, and a little chocolate. Similar flavor. I thought this was a solid beer.

Coca cola color. Strong smoky flavour, some wet wood campfire associations. Lingering smoke in the finish. Not too balanced.
