I don’t like smoked beer. To be quite honest, I don’t like a lot of smoked things. Pork and salmon, yes. Whiskey, beer, smoke in general? Not for me. Why the hell are you drinking a smoked beer then?!
Well, I like Beavertown. They’re interesting, and I don’t think they’ve made a beer I don’t like. So, what’s the deal with a smoked imperial porter then?
This pours a very creamy heady, almost like a nitro head. The body is dark. Very dark. I think this is the beer Spinal Tap were talking about when they said “none more black”!
On the nose, there’s a much of roasty loveliness, without being over powering. It’s a bitter drinker, but a nice bitterness. There’s a very mild hint of smoke but thankfully, it’s not overbearing. This is certainly another Beavertown beer that has made me rethink about smoked beers.
