Bomber into a Duvel tulip. Big thanks to vonschplieffen for bringing this one back from Taos and sharing.

A: Black body; 1" head of fine light-brown foam. Ok retention, spotty lace. Nice.

S: Whoa. Spicy, woody, smoky, and lightly malty. Unique and fascinating.

T: A bit sweeter than the nose, with some dark fruit joining the piñon smoke. Nice spice on the finish. Tasty.

O: I didn't know what to expect out of piñon-smoked porter, but I found its unique woodiness and spice characteristics to be entirely enjoyable. Tasty stuff.

Cheers!

Smoked porter, from a bomber purchased at the brewpub. The label was written in Sharpie.

1 finger rapidly receding tan head, opaque black body. Some surface memory and faint lacing.

Smells of smoked meat, some black coffee.

Taste follows the smell-- relatively clean finishing with some hops. Mainly smoked meat/BBQ. Very faint red grape and some vegetal hop bitterness, some dark chocolate.

Mouthfeel is good: smooth and complementary to the taste.

Overall a decent smoked porter, not stingy on the smoke.
