Bottle thanks to CMUBEERMAN. Pours dark black brown, thin off white head. Aroma is smoky, meaty, earthy, salty. Flavor is the same. Very smokehouse with pineapple. I’m loving smoky beers lately! Thanks so much Andrew!

Jul 26, 2008 bottle from stine... pours a fairly opaque ruby brown/black topped by a dark hot cocoa colored head. some spotty lacing is left as it recedes. there’s definitely smoke/peat on the nose... along with dry roasty grain, earth, grass, chocolate, some dark fruity sweetness and a coffee-like edge. nice soft mellow smokiness flavor mixes with chocolate, dry malty grain and a light acidic finish. ashy aftertaste. medium body seems a bit thin from the acidity and smoke. neat...

Jul 18, 2008 Courtesy of tytoanderso. Fairly smoky aroma...lots of peat, some sweet roast malt and coffee. The body is full on black with a diminishing thumb thick tan head. Smoky fore, chocolate and coffee. Very peat/smoke driven. This is probably more of a smoked than a stout. Which means that I don’t really like it that much, but it is well made.

Jul 14, 2008 [Bottle] Pours a clear deep brown with a medium tan head. Aroma is very smoky, with a bit of peat snuck in there. Peat/smoke overpowers most of the rest of the beer. Medium/thin mouthfeel.
