Apr 14, 2009 Really enjoy this porter. Got a case right when they were released and I’m drinking the last one right now. Its hard for me to recall but I do think the brew has improved with its aging.
A smooth flavor with very little hop taste. Its got a light aroma and a great color. Pretty good mouthfeel to it. The smokey flavor is quite a joy in itself.
Would definitely recommend and I’ll hopefully be picking up some more soon.

Apr 6, 2009 Top notch smoked porter, very famous for a reason... Black with a nice head, ok retention... Aroma is smoky, peaty, much like a campfire in smell and taste... Much more smoke than the Stone Smoked Porter, i like this better... Smoke makes beer better...

Apr 5, 2009 (2004 version) Deep, dark brown with a molasses underpinning. Nice smokiness jumps off the glasss. Redolent of sweet, Southern smokhouse with a roasty backdrop. Dominant smokey flavor. A hearty winter brew fit for cold nights and enjoying the outdoors or Alaskan wilderness.

Apr 4, 2009 enjoyed during the opening round of March Madness ’09. Deep dark brown body with a fluffy tan head and small web-like lacing, looks fantastic. Huge, agressive aroma of smoked, salted pork and campfire. Scents of crackers and tobacco add some depth. Malty and smokey with a light sweetness on the tongue. Medium to heavy bodied. Generous flavors of burnt wood, earthy peat and smoked meat. A bitter hop flavor comes forward and gives way to a mild chocolate aftertaste. I love a big smokey beer and this was better than I imagined it would be. Surprisingly drinkable for the style as well. Paired rather nicely with a slice of cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries."
