Sep 21, 2006 Pours a dark, clear red wiht a good, creamy head. The aroma is definitely smokey, with a touch of chocolate and maybe even a tiny bit of coffee. There’s a bit of sweetness in the flavor, but not a lot more than smoke in the aroma.

Sep 21, 2006 Updated: Sep 24, 2009This beer is different! It pours dark brown with red hue in the light, and has a thin off-white head. The aroma amazingly captures the character of smoked sausages, beef jerky and has a malty background. Beautiful, creamy mouthfeel and body. Full flavored and very chewy. Hickory like smokeyness is apparent, similiar to the flavors of sausage and bacon off of a fresh grill. There’s a slight, subtle malty touch in the background, but a long, full smokeyness predominates. The finish is long and has a pleasant, slightly burnt like character, almost giving off the feeling of a wood-burning stove. Good for a cold fall or winter night. Very different.

Sep 20, 2006 Ruby coloured with a consistent tan head. Slightly less of the smoked ham aroma in this one allowing a bit of sweetness. Also initially tastes very sweet but develops good bitterness into a long aftertaste. Better than the Wiezen.

Sep 17, 2006 Bottle. Poured clear dark brown with a large light brown frothy head that was mostly lasting with very good lacing. Moderate woody smoke malt aroma. Medium body. Medium sweet smoke flavor with a medium bitter finish of moderate duration. Complex standout beer.

Sep 17, 2006 Dark ruby, nice head. Huge strong aroma of smoke and little sausages. Flavor is of liquid smoke, with a beer lurking somewhere in the background, utterly obliterated. More tolerable than some of the others from this brewer, I still liked the helles the best. Would be great to cook with though. Not a bad beer, just not my bag, baby.

Sep 13, 2006 This is what smoked is all about. Blistering, burning smoke aroma, oak and cheddar; outstanding. Flavor is a thick wheaty smokefest, with an interesting assertiveness in the hops. This beer is completely over the top and overwhelmingly enjoyable.
