Smoking Wood

Bought one that I'll drink this week then will probably get another of I like it and willnhold on to it for a year or two. Would recommend you taste it to see if you like it.

 

drank one a few weeks ago was delicious but extremely smoky (kinda like in the name of it) and some sips was off putting kinda tasting what the cooking liquid smoke smells like. But at its high abv it was pretty mellow already. If it ages better i hope the smoke taste drops and the sugars come out.

 

You could probably age it and have it turn out well, but I think it's fantastic right now. It could be an interesting experiment.

 

I was blown away by this one. Even my lady, who does enjoy beer but isn't crazy about it, went out and got her own bottle after a taste. I have three aging but damn if I don't want one for every day of the week.

 

Just opened my first bottle. I like it a lot but am not getting as much smoke as I'd hoped. Still a great stout/porter with good rye whiskey flavor.

 

I haven't had the rye whiskey version yet, but the bourbon barrel version was remarkably smooth when it was fresh back in the spring. Still, I don't think a little bit of age would do the beer any harm.
