Stone Smoked Porter

A red-brown beer with a disappearing brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of chocolate, but not much smoke compared to a Bamberg beer. The flavor is dry, slighty sour but also sweet and with light notes of chocolate. The end is quite roasty. I can’t detect the smoke, but it is a nice porter.

Really dark brown. Hints of licorice and smoke in the aroma. Medium bodied, somewhat roasty, slightly malt sweet with bitter finish. Only a hint ofg smoke, I would have expected this beer to be more aggresive, but it is rather well balanced.

(Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of fiulijn. Pours a clear, chestnut brown with a warm, reddish glow and a dense, beige head leaving some laces. Lightly sweet, roasted malt with a wee whiff of dried fruit. Medium body, lightly burned malt accents with a bitter finish. Very little smoke to be detected. 150807

1 pt 6 fl oz. Pours deep black brown with light brown head. Slight chocolate and malty note aroma. Dry rye malty, smoked, dried raisin flavour. Finish is smoked. Great flavour and aroma.
