Chris B. is drinking a Johnny Smoked Porter by Wow Brands at Hopscotch
Agree with others about real campfire smokiness. Dominates the coffee which is the junior partner. A nice smooth beer.

A pleasant stout with mild smokiness and coffee tones - but I can't really taste the ocean

The biscuity smell hits the nose from a foot away. Nice head, taste sits at back of palate, very filling. Definitely a winter beer!
