| Tasting: | This is an excellent beer. A little too much smoke flavor, but something I have come to love. I may cut back on the smoked barley next time to make it a little more subtle. The beer is highlighted with a smooth malt flavor and the high alcohol content is hidden by the taste. I can't stop drinking it! | |||||||
