COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Pipeworks Smoked Porter is brewed with classic rauch malt and cherrywood smoked malt, totaling 20% of the grist. This first offering in our smoked series starts with a rich malt base with hints of roast, finishing with a moderate level of smoky campfire-goodness. We’ll be brewing this one with different levels of smokiness throughout the year, so we’re sure to find something with just the right amount of smoke for you! - Bottle Conditioned - open & pour with care.

Batch #011 bottled: 4/25/12 (no wax)

Bottle courtesy of Kermis. Poured a dark mahogany with a thick off-white head. The aroma is a little flowery and medicinal leading to a peaty, earthy, smoky, medium to weak bitter flavour. The texture is a little oily. A super beer and highly drinkable.

thedm (4773) - Fort Wayne, USA - DEC 29, 2012
This bottled brew from rbsg #28 poured a head of frothy medium sized white colored bubbles that were and left behind a no visible carbonation light brown colored body. The mild aroma was dark malt. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish with a hot burning Chipotle aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of hot Chipotle. A decent one that I would consider drinking again.
