About This Beer
pFriem brewed Maple Barrel Aged Smoked Porter with eight different specialty malts, including chocolate malt, oats, and beechwood-smoked malt. And they hopped it with Chinook to nudge it toward its 45 IBU and bolster the brew’s mild campfire tones with a touch of pine resin.
A snooze in maple syrup barrels infused the beer’s smooth body with maple’s woodsy sweetness, a touch of booze, and the oaky nuances of vanilla and tannins.
Tasting Notes
Have you ever brunched on bacon and waffles inside a log cabin? This is what it would taste like — rich and lightly smoky with a splash of maple syrup.

A good balance of maple, coffee, malt, with a hint of smoke.

I was hoping for more from this one. The smokiness stole from the porter flavor instead of augmenting it, leaving the whole thing a little underwhelming for me.

There is a lot going on here. It has a slightly sweet smokey aftertaste. There was also something else going on there that I did not overly care for - maybe bourbon from the barrels?

just the right amount of smoke playing against the roasty porter profile. good, not the best of pfriem, but glad to have tried

Maple & light smokiness w/roasted malt in aroma. Maple sweetness & smoke work so well together in taste. Pecan pie vibes. Light
booze and wood are present as well.

Notes of rich, dark chocolate, a hint of vanilla, and a wisp of smoke. Nice work with this smoked porter, pFriem.
