COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
PMS Smoked Molasses Porter (Peated, Smoked, Molasses). A dark, but smooth and drinkable beer. We took a bit of malt and smoked it over a peat fire. We also added a good bit of molasses to the kettle. Very complex. <br /> Fresh cherries were added to the cask. The fruit acts as the priming sugar in a wild, spontaneous fermentation and naturally carbonates the cask.

Smells an awful lot like an oatmeal cookie. The cherries aren’t big in the aroma but there’s a spice-like note and the molasses create this resemblence. I’m not getting much smoke in aroma or flavor though. Cherries come through in the flavor as a fruity tartness. Flavor is outmatched by the aroma.

cask. Opaque brown, with the slightest red hue. ¾inch head of thick cream floating on the surface, tan with a light tinge of pink. Aroma of toasted malt, some molasses. Flavor is wow! Big tart fruit on the first sip. Lots of chocolate on the palate, toasted malt, coffee, molasess. Light smoke and fresh cherried in the finish. One of the best and most unique porters ever made.
