Wood Shed Smoked Porter
West Flanders Brewing Co.

The Wood Shed Smoked Porter is unique in many ways. The smoke flavor comes from a delicate addition of a very special malted barley that is smoked with Beechwood after the malting process is completed by the maltster. This particular malt originated from Bamburg, Germany. You will also notice that, like our Stout, we do not use malts that impart a dry, burnt-coffee taste in our Porter. We like it smooth, balanced, exhibiting a plethora of harmony complemented with a touch of smoke for the cooler Colorado Winter weather. And lastly, our Porter is not Black and it is not Brown, but rather it follows the traditional color guidelines for a classic Porter which is to say that it is a deep, dark red-stained Mahogany color. Look at the very edge of the glass and hold it up to a light and you will see what we mean!
