Good tasting beer, but not to have frequently. At least i can’t. Roasty, smoke with that common hop profile.

Pours jet black with a thick tan head that quickly dissipates. Smell of smoke but not overwhelming. Tastes of coffee and smoke, with a crisp finish. Very good beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

This is the "plain" version...good on its own.. but chipotle was best...good tasty flavor and smooth

Smells like a campfire. Really nice dark beer with smokey BBQ-like flavors mixed with chocolate and coffee. It immediately feels like it's going to be harsh going down, but it's actually really smooth and has a great smokey finish. One of my favorites

The beer is dark brown with crimson highlights visible when held to the light. The beige head is an inch thick, displaying lasting retention with plenty of sticky lacing left behind. The aroma brings smoke, roast, brown bread, a touch of resinous hops. Nice flavor with a forward smoke character. A touch of campfire and charred roast. Additional notes of salami, summer sausage. The finish offers a touch of bitterness with lingering pine and resinous hops. Quite flavorful and enjoyable. Medium bodied and pretty smooth sailing with moderate carbonation. Alcohol content feels low and unobtrusive. A solid beer. As easy as this one is to find, I definitely see myself buying this again.

Great dark dark color, almost black with creamy head. Aroma of thick malts with plenty of smoke and it tastes just like it smells. Great beer as usual from Stone.

It pours a deep dark black yielding a spectacular one inch white foamy head leaving some nice lumpy valleys in the head. The head dies within a minute. The smell is a roasty, dry coffee sort of thing going on with a nice amount of hops allocated inside of some light cocoa. The taste is dry, roasty, bitter and sweet at different times throughout the beer. Some burnt malts seem to come through a bit as the beer warms. The palate is medium to heavy coating my mouth and tongue nicely like it should on a cold winter’s night. Sharpness is slightly there. Overall, I liked it for the most part and would come back to it.

Tap - fair sized foamy head, almost black color, fair sized smoked malt aroma and flavor, not too overpowering though, should go good with the BBQ I just ordered ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Ar-coffee, dark chocolate. Ap-dark black,medium head. Ta-pepper added to the descriptors from the aroma. Very nice, smooth porter.

This is such a classic beer! The smokeyness of this brew is astounding! Really balanced and pleasant!
