A: The pour is a dark brown color with an off-white head sitting on top.

S: Definitely shows off the smoke, and there is some of the usual saltiness that I get from smoked beers. That said, there is some depth to the nose and there is a nice toast, bread, and toffee character.

T: The flavor is fairly smokey as well, but it also has some complexity and treats the smoke as a complementary flavor. Toasted bread, slight caramel, and some toffee. A little bit of vanilla, but not much in the way of bourbon.

M: Medium in body and medium in carbonation.

O: Nicely balanced smoked beer. One of the better smoked beers I've come across.

Serving type: on-tap
