Smoky oak-aged wine-barreled mahogany-hued porter gains vinous Merlot density and soured cider tartness above burnt hickory spell. Dry port-burgundy midst reinforces tannic white grape, sour black cherry, and pipe tobacco illusions. Faintest black chocolate malting further embitters charred timber recess.

(ITHACA) GORGES SMOKED PORTER
ROCK ART MIDNIGHT MADNESS SMOKED PORTER
STONE SMOKED PORTER
Tantalizingly robust ebony-hued tan-laced porter brings bittersweet hop-roasted black chocolate thrust to creamy caramel-toffee cluster countering tar-like hickory-smoked cedar-burnt black coffee bittering mid-palate. Black cherry, blackberry, black currant, and bourbon scamper through anise-draped pine-tarred molasses malting. Bitter mocha tones hit hard, then back off, as deliciously smooth cappuccino finish lingers infinitely. Maple-smoked cola nuttiness and cocoa-beaned dryness fill the gaps.
WILLIAMSBURG WASHINGTON PORTER
Inviting mahogany-hued tan-headed medium body integrates oily coffee bean sourness, underlying espresso bitterness, and harsh nuttiness with oak-dried hop-charred smoked hickory protrusion. Roasted chocolate malts waver in and out of black licorice binge, tar-like singe, and charcoal tinge. Brewery defunct: 2006.
BLUEGRASS BLACK SILK
ALASKAN SMOKED PORTER
Seasonal black-hued porter with rich tan head, burnt maple aroma, and creamy smoothness. Black coffee frontage, chocolate milkshake richness, and wood-smoked malted hop insistence receive clean mountain watered appropriation similar stylistically to Rogue Smoke A Rauch, only drier. Prune-juiced roasted chicory, burnt cedar, pine tar, cigarette ash, and scabrous Band-Aid illusions increase ersatz nutty bitterness. Outstanding with barbecue foods.
