Stone Smoked Porter

(Bottle). I had low expectations for this, but was very pleasantly surprised. It’s a terrific beer. Aroma is chocolatey. Black color, thick brown head. Flavor extremely well balanced between chocolate, coffee, and malt. Nice finish. Wonderful.

22 oz bottle. It tastes just like I’m eating a BBQ. Smoke, oak, coffee, chocolate. Very easy to drink, I just with it had a higher ABV. Great for drinking outdoors on a hot day.

Good balance for a Stone Brewery product. Malt,smokiness, coffee, caramel chocolate and hops. A very easy drinker. On my regular list.

Smoked Beer tasting at Three Cellars Milwaukee. Nice rich porter Chocolate and coffee. Not the best Porter I have had but very good.

Brown with a thin tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, smoke, sweet malt and notes of hops. Taste in line with aroma plus a little chocolate. Smoke not overpowering, nice complement to the beer. Finishes Mildly bitter with a dry semi-hoppy finish.

Dudebra says this is disappointing and I’m not saying his wrong, aight? Full bodied, big smoke flavor, a good example of the style. However, I don’t look to stone for "a good example of the style", I look to stone for beers that blow my mind. This didn’t.

Great beer. First porter I’ve had in 10 years! I am going to make a promise to grab a porter or 2 next time i go to the beer store. Deep mohagny and very rich flavor.

Bottle that was a few month’s past it’s enjoy by date. It poured black with a tan head that was gone within 2 minutes. It smelled like someone lit a campfire in the distance. I could really taste the smokiness.
