Poured a dark cloudy orange brown with little in the form of a head. Plenty of salty smokey bacon in the aroma of course, but little else could be discerned. Flavour profile was ok, but not great. However, the palate was pleasingly full.

Pours copper with a beige head. Aroma is smoke. Flavor is charred wood, smoke, light malt, and hops. Needs something to balance the smokiness.

This beer pretty much sucks ass. Orange in color with a white bubbly head. Smells like a bottle of liquid smoke and tastes like the smell of a campfire while on a wicked hangover. Reminds me of camping, which I really hate doing. I really like most Rogue brews but they can stick this one up the crack of their ass. The only reason i wont rate it a 0.5 is because it gets a few tenths of a point for creativity which is like giving the retarded kid in school an A for effort.

Pours milky burnt orange with particulate, and a creamy orangish light tan head that could have been passed off as ice cream, good retention too. Aroma is smoked malt, charred/grilled fruit, peaches, and a planty hop note. Flavor is smoked malts peppery yeast, burnt toast, roast, weak black tea. Finish is smokey, bitter hops and a nice lingering char, as if I had just eaten some BBQ. Pretty good beer just not too impressive.

22oz bottle. Pours bronze-copper color with a medium tan head that leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is very smokey and woody. Sweet malt is overtaken by the strong smokey flavor that also has some slight fruit and breadiness. The hops bring dry bitter finish. An ok beer.

Not my favorite style, but this beer has redeeming qualities. Not bad on the palate- not overwhelming. Pours a yellow/ orange color with an aroma of campfire and band-aid. Flavor is similar with malt involved in the mix. Finish is lingering smoke and bitterness.

Bottle: Pours a hazy deep bronze copper with a just off white head. Lightly smoky nose. Nice malt character giving off some apple wood, graham cracker, peaty smoke, not meaty or thick enough smokiness. Light feel, slightly thin bodied. The flavor has some apple wood, a lean but firm malt presence. Not very smoky, but it has a peat like sweet earthiness. The finish has a solid Pacific northwest hop bitterness, long and dry. Solid and balanced, but not smoky enough.

Clear orange-yellow body with a white head. Very hoppy and thin-bodied for a smoke; I expected a little better from Rogue.
