Rogue Smoke Ale

Bottled. A mid brown/chestnut coloured beer with no head. The aroma is meaty smoky and a bit oily. The taste is obviously smoky too and although this isn’t as strong as the Schlenkerlas it is still a damn fine beer and would be easier to drink for non-smoke fiends. There is also a fragrant hoppy taste. Personally I love smoke beers and can now add this to the list of good ’uns.

Bronze appearance with a gentle not too dominant smokiness.A medium sized head and left no lacing at all. If you like you smokiness subtle this is one for you.

Lighter, hazy, slightly amber color. Mild hop aroma with stronger notes of smoke. The smoke in this is just how I like it, not too much, which may disappoint some lovers of this style.

22oz bottle. Orange-amber color. Smoke and caramel malt taste. Medium body, lightly carbonated. Ok but not my style.

Nicely presenting ale, decent crown on top .Medium intense smoke aroma, softer, creamier at end. Chewy malts with smoky theme. Not as smoky as some are. Good balance.

Pours dark orange. Medium off white head. There is a definite smoke aroma, maybe a little smoked meat smell. I can taste smoke and caramel malt. Very thin mouthfeel. Ends up being a fairly light and drinkable beer. The aroma had me thinking this would be a bigger beer.

Cloudy copper w/ frothy beige head. Smoked bacon aroma w/ some sweet caramel & ash in the background. Surprisingly light-maybe-medium feel. Nice, uncomplicated caramel & smoke flavour w/ light acidic notes & some earthy hops.

A lot better than my first smoked. Not one of my favorite Rogue ales. Pours a lighter brown/deep amber body with big beige head. Funky burnt, smoked, hickory aroma. Has a good smoked salmon flavor. Some decent hops can be tasted. Sorta bland, malty, nutty. Not a horrible beer.
