This collaborative Smoked Porter offers a decadent sensory experience, merging the robust architecture of a dark ale with the clean fermentation profile of a lager yeast. A warm, complex wood smoke aroma greets the nose, layered with rich milk chocolate and hints of espresso. The palate is dominated by a deep dark malt sweetness, intricately balanced by the spicy notes of Mittelfruh hops and the bright citrus of Galena. Dark cocoa and ripe berries emerge mid-palate, finishing with a structured bitterness reminiscent of burnt sugar. Its thick, treacle-like texture remains impeccably balanced, avoiding cloying sweetness through its refined roast character.
Appearance. Deep ebony to opaque black (SRM 38-40) with a dense, creamy tan head that shows excellent retention and leaves thick lacing. Clarity is brilliant but masked by the intense color.
Aroma. High intensity of pleasant wood smoke harmonizing with rich milk chocolate and toasted bread. Subtle hints of espresso coffee are present. Clean fermentation profile with very low yeast esters and a light spicy hop note.
Taste. Rich initial dark malt sweetness featuring cocoa powder and dark chocolate. Mid-palate notes of ripe berries are balanced by the spicy flavor of Mittelfruh and citrus of Galena hops. The finish features a pleasant burnt sugar bitterness and lingering smoke.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full body with a thick, chewy, and velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate. A noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, providing a smooth, non-astringent experience.
