3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
50cl, batch 264, BB 12.01.2012. from Alvinne biershop.
Cuivrée, légère opacité sur fin de bouteille, col fin beige.
Arôme le côté genièvre / baies se sent bien, malte avec un beau bouquet fume qui reste néanmoins en retrait.
Profile malte, pointe de fumé et de chocolat, en retrait une pointe de baies. Aigreur minime fruitée de fruit/baies genièvre.
Le tout est agréable en bouche entre douceur maltée et une pointe amer fruitée, le tout avec cet ajout de baies. Le tout reste bien léger en bouche avec une fin de bouche allant vers une pointe de fume. Le nom porte peut être à se trompé", mais je ne vois as ici qcq trace de bois. Fini est surprenant bien balance entre un côté bien malte et ce fini fruité sur fond de fume. En se réchauffant, je note u regain de profile grille presque torréfié. Super.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a pleasant raw sienna color with a finger head that laces out to the edges very nicely. Rich aromas of a classic campfire, like when you wake up under a moist forest in a tent and you’ve been drinking all night by the fire. Smokey, pine sap, peat moss and a hint of sweet malts. On the palate the smoke is a touch less pronounced with a little sweet cedar and juniper bitterness peeking out from behind the round smokey malts. Very tasty with a bacon onion and fiddlehead pizza with smoked maple vermont cheddar cheese.... damn Im in heaven, definitely drink this one with some tasty food !

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
500ml bottle in an English pint. Pours reddish brown with a light tan head. Aroma of lightly roasted or smoky malts, plus some fruits and spiciness and some bread and cereal. The berries stand out over the smoked malts. Average texture. A really interesting beer.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Copper, loose, frothy head. Smeel like caramel and light smoke. Usually with Scandinavian smoked beers i get a lot of smoke and a lot medicinal flavors. Not so much here. Just sweet caramel, light smoke, and piney (Juniper?) flavors.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Batch 340 brewed 02.02.11. Dark red, amber, smells of wood, smoke and a bit of sourness. Medium carbonation and small head. Taste is malt, sweetness, smoke, medium thickness, a small bitterness but a bit short on the finish. A good beer, different, the smell is reminiscent of campfires and smelly wool socks, but in a good way!
