Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a Dogfish Head tulip
L: Beautiful caramel/copper pour with thick fluffy off-white head. Great lacing.
S: Sweet and malty... mixed with smoke and peat.
T/F: Just like it smells. Toasted grains and caramel sugars to start. Modest sweetness. Complimented by a bit of smoke and peat... oak... and some decent hop bitterness for balance. Medium bodied... hides its 9.6% heft. Decent carbonation.
O: Not my favorite style, but a well executed beer. A good mix of flavors... true to what a Wee Heavy should be... and I like that it's not super unbalanced sweet.

Very good cigar beer. Malty, sweet, boozy. Medium bodied but kind of thin. Lot of floaters at the bottom. Good flavor, but a bit thinner than I expected from the style.

A: Poured into a snifter to a deep ruddy brown beer topped by a dense and slightly rocky finger of light tan head which fades quickly to a collar around the edge of the glass with minimal lacing
S: Smells of caramel, toffee, and slight banana note with a hint of smoke and vanilla.
T: Taste is nice smoke, toffee and banana, oak, caramel, light vanilla. Some nice earthy notes on here too. On the swallow there's more banana, earthy notes, oak, toffee, slight vanilla and some lingering smoke.
M: This beer is fairly full in body with a slightly slick feel on the palate. Carbonation is on the low end but is adequate for the style while the beer has a drying finish.
O: Overall this is a really nice beer. It probably isn't the most traditional and the banana note is a little odd but it does work well. This beer has a great amount of complexity and the flavors work well together. It's worth a try if they make it again.

L- Ruby red appears brown, no head
S- Rich slightly roasted sweet caramel malt
T-Sweet malt, mellow, peat smoky
F-Medium-bodied, average carbonation, slight syrupy
Overall this beer had potential however it was a tad bit too sweet, I personally really enjoyed the smokiness though
