Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Dark amber with some tan head. Aroma is very smoky and meaty - BBQ in a bottle. Is there bacon in here? Taste is caramel malt with lots more smoke.

The smoke is nice, but other than that it tastes most like water with added alcohol and artificial smoke. Not very good, it lacks in other flavors. Bottle from Burg Bieren in Ermelo.

(30cl bottle thanks to bu11zeye) rich copper with a film of tan fine bubbles. Nose of mesquite, bacon fat, camp fire caramel. Smells like a good smoke beer. Taste of caramel, raisin, bacon fat, wood/mesquite and a barbecue. Raisin lingers.

(Bottled) Hazy dark brown with a small, firm head. Very strong combination of smoky ham and tar in the nose, with a touch of anise and quite evident sulphury notes after a while. Flavor is more conservative with smoked maltiness and mild sweetness, also some sour-vinegary notes and earthy barnyard feel. Light to medium body, somewhat thin palate with lowish carbonation. Probably slightly infected, but still quite drinkable. Could be fuller in body. 4253

(30cl bottle) Pours a clear amber body with a medium beige head. Aroma of smoke, sausage, charred wood, and roasted grain. Flavor of roasted malt, smoke, light caramel, and beef jerky.

Bottle courtesy bu11zeye. Clear reddish orange color with a light bit of bubbly head. Aroma is big smoky notes, bacon grease and smoked wood. Flavor is very smoked and roasted. Drippy bacon grease. Finishes smoky and beefy.
