Oct 7, 2009 08/10/2009. Clean, smoky, sweet, roasty. Really good beer, made well, and in great condition but it doesn’t scream drink more of me. Maybe it’s a shade too sweet... like the young girl you flirted with in your early twenties but never bothered to properly chase down.

Sep 28, 2009 Large bottle. What can I say, Stone knows how to craft a fine beer. This is a very drinkable porter. Big taste without the big alcohol. Chewy sweet malt with just a hint of smoke that becomes more noticeable as it warms.

Sep 28, 2009 A dark brown to black beer with a fast disappearing head. The aroma is roasted like close to charred malt, with a dash of smoke. The taste is very smooth with a somewhat roasted taste with some tar & a very slight smokey aftertaste that is akin to an ashy taste. The first time I had this I did not detect any smoke taste but on the second try as it warmed up it was noticeable. Would be good to drink outside in the cold next to a fire.

Sep 26, 2009 The Stone Smoked Porter poured a translucent brown with an amber hue. The off-white head was massive due to a very heavy pour. A very evident lace was left as the head receded.
The aroma was dominated by smoky malt. The taste was malty with a hint of spice and a smoky finish. For those of you who do not like smoked beers, be aware that as a smoked porter, there truly is not a lot of smokiness to this beer...for those of you love smoked beers you might be disappointed.
The mouthfeel is mediocre, not as creamy as I would have liked but with a nice carbonation that makes the beer quite drinkable. All in all an enjoyable brew.

Sep 20, 2009 Had this at the Great Lakes Brew Fest. This porter was incredible, maybe one of the best porters I’ve ever had. The smokiness spreads out to the back of your throat in a coating manner. Very very good beer, wish I could drink more often.
