steview (731), Oceanside, California, USA Apr 19, 2008 subtle smoke, but still great--quaffable and tasty; cocoa and stinky cheese nose, the aroma remains as chocolate and coffee; good balance from the hops that makes this not overwhelming, but i could use more smoke; i would love to have more because this beer is simple, but hides more quality.
jbuzz (414), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jul 21, 2008 Smoked Beer tasting at Three Cellars Milwaukee. Nice rich porter Chocolate and coffee. Not the best Porter I have had but very good. esjaygee (687), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Jul 20, 2008 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. AndrewKScott (246), Lemont, Illinois, USA Jul 19, 2008 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. NaturalIce (73), South Orange, New Jersey, USA Jul 19, 2008 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. gameface23 (44), Haverhill, Massachusetts, USA Jul 19, 2008 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. It was enjoyable.
