Brewed and named in honor of TestPilot 001 Jeff Kramer the SmoKin Porter is a full bodied robust porter exhibiting a mildly smoky character complimented by a generous helping of CTZ hops for bittering and Mt. Hood hops for flavor and aroma. With an ABV of 7.2%, a bitterness of 51 IBUs and a deep dark SRM of 32, the SmoKin Porter drinks remarkably smooth for such a dark colored beer. With skills that rival Kramer's own, the SmoKin Porter is a delicious choice for any occasion.

A: Moderately light roast, faint black malt character, with an ample smokey finish.
A: Super dark brown, almost black with garnet highlight. Good clarity, so dark it appears hazy, with a moderate white head.
T: Moderately light roast with a faint black malt presence, lightly sweet with a strong smokey finish.
M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
O: Alright; the beer is a little disjointed. The malt isn't robust enough in the aroma and flavor to fully compliment the smoke presence.
