Burnt paper. Stinky smoke. I can’t get past the smell. Have I mentioned how bad this smells? I need to wash my clothes after drinking this because they will smell like smoke

(12oz bottle) clear copper, effervescent bubbles and lasting creamy offwhite head. Nose of plastic, light charcoal/smoked wood but very subtle. Taste of light smoke, cream, cereal grains, earth, and biscuit. Cola-like carbonation that leaves a nice Subtle smoky aftertaste.

Ok, so we have blueberry beer, pumpkin beer, apricot beer, cherry beer and even chocolate beer. And now, ladies & gentlemen, we have the first beef jerky flavored beer! Yeah, not for me.

Smoky... good but that’s about it... really didn’t have anything else going on but that. Interesting I suppose because it is different.

Smoke comes through in both the aroma and taste. Besides this, it is a pretty bland beer. Little malt and hops.

12 oz bottle. Pours a deep clear golden with a creamy white head. Aroma is just a bit smoked, plenty of bread, cereal, like cheerios, just a touch of woodiness. Flavor starts with a rich sweet creaminess, a touch of honey, the smoke definitely comes out in the finish and I still get this very sweet sugary taste on the tip of my tongue. Medium slightly creamy body, nice carbonation. I dig this beer, very refreshing, it’d be an awesome back yarder with some bbq

12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a large, foamy, white head that lasts. Plenty of carbonation. Taste is of mesquite, grass, smoke, malt, caramel and bacon. Similar aroma. Has a nice creamy body that is on the lighter side. Very easy to drink, refreshing, enjoyable and worth picking up again. Overall, one of the best summer beers I’ve had.

Pours golden with a thin off-white head. Notes of light smoke, meat, and spicy phenol. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Not too bad, but I’m not a fan.
