Commercial Description:
Our Smoked Porter is a robust London style porter with a deep chocolate/ruby color and the subtle accent of hardwood smoked malt. This distinctive beer is brewed using no less than seven different varieties of premium European malted barley, resulting in a complex and full bodied beer characterized by hints of chocolate, coffee, caramel and beechwood smoke. The big malty finish to this beer is balanced by a solid hop bitterness and the refined English aroma and flavor of premium Goldings finishing hops.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a one finger light tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and a touch of smoke. Flavor was smooth and silky with chocolate, roasted malts, coffee, molasses and notes of smoke. Decent porter

12 oz. bottle. Pours dark brown color with a medium sized beige head. The aroma is dark chocolate, light roasted malts, light darker fruits, and a hint of smoke. The flavor is much of the same: dark chocolate, roasted malt, a hint of smoke, mildly sweet caramel. Medium bodied with good mouthfeel. This is a very solid porter.

Bottle. Pours very dark brown with tan head. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, brown sugar and roasted malt. Flavor is dominated by strong coffee. Also tasted roasted malt, chocolate and brown sugar. If you like your coffee black you will enjoy this. Resembles a stout more than a porter.
