Bottle. Started about 10C which was too cold. Very dark brown with a coat of tan head. Very smokey aroma with singed sugars, prunes, chocolate, bread. Lighter in both body and palate than suggested by the aroma with heavier roast and a smokey and bitter finish. More inviting and rounded as it warmed.

Bottle from Geers. Cloudy black, stable, foamy, beige head. Aroma of cigar tobacco, beef stock, espresso, toast, wood, charcoal, prune. Taste has sweetish prune, old raisin and fig in a toasty malt body wiht notes of coffee roast and smoky-umami beef stock. Earthy hoppy finish, expressive notes of bitter espresso, smoked meat & tobacco. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Quite an excellent hybrid.

Bottle. Almost black. Malt, beachwood and fat sausage in the lovely aroma. Malty sweetish flavor with licorice and hints of sausage and smoke. The flavor is less convincing as the aroma. Roasty finish.

330ml bottle from herrklemann, thanks Klemens! Pours almost black with a thick creamy beige head, good retention. Aroma of dark chocolate, caramel, roast malts, light smoke. Taste is sweet, chocolatey, caramel, smoke, touch of liquorice, roast malts, bitter finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Really nicely balanced, pleased to find another smoked beer I actually really enjoyed drinking.

Not extremely smoked, good balance. Love the crisp hops mixed with grainy malt and the kick of smoke. One of their best, most unique beers.

Fra flaske 330ml. Delt med Rune på Skarven 1 Nov 11. Svart. Filmskum. Behagelig røykaroma. Smaken litt torv. Lett syrlig etter hvert. Grei - men lite variasjon.
