Did not like the first sip at all, but the flavor grew on me. Very rich flavor and texture. The only other smoked beer I have tried is the Stone Smoked porter, and I liked it quite a bit more because the smoke seemed to be better integrated into the flavor.

Bottle.Copper-orange color with good thin beige head that dissapates after a short time. Great smokey malt with smoked salmon nose and ends with malty caramelness. Flavor is similar with hickory charcoal notes that end in a nice iced-bourbon flavor. Hops are apparent and blend well with the malt. Very nice.

Draft - nice, smoky malt aroma ... imagine that. Deep orange/copper body with a thickish beige head of about two fingers depth. Very nice, smokey first swallow. However, it quickly faded and became a bit sweet. The smoke took a bit of a back seat. Still a nice beer overall, but given a choice I would stick with a Schlenkerla.

Amber-orangeish color, with a frothy beige head, with a mild smoked salmon nose, with a beechwood campfire accent, caramelized malt, toffeeish note, and a hint of smoked mussels in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a roasted smoky character, caramelized malt, hint of oiliness, smoked bacon accent, leading towards a mild smokey finish.

I’d like to start out by saying i’m not a big fan of smoke ales. Poured an orange color. Aroma was mainly a smoky bacon and fish combo. The flavor was thin and smoky. I didn’t enjoy this very much (got the bottle for a friend).

Cloudy dark gold with a very small white head. Smells like a campfire. Taste is burnt orange, smoked salmon with some hops and a mildly bitter finish. Less malty and more hoppy/bitter than typical smoked, not surprising considering the brewery. Don’t get me wrong it is very smoked but also hoppy too. Those expecting a typical malted hop-less smoked will think that this beer is a hopeless rogue when it is actually a hop-full Rogue (did I confuse everyone?).

Cloudy copper to orange in color with a medium off white head. Full on smoke aroma. Nice moderate smoke flavor back up by a little sweet malt. There also seems to be some hop bitterness hidden behind the main flavor, smoke. The aftertaste is smoke, some malt and bitterness which is pretty much the same as the taste.
