American Smoked Porter is a dark beer style that combines the rich, roasted flavors of a traditional porter with the unique addition of smoked malt. This gives the beer a distinctive smoky aroma and taste, often reminiscent of campfire or bacon. The balance of sweetness from the malt and bitterness from the hops creates a complex flavor profile. Typically, American Smoked Porters have an alcohol content ranging from 4.5% to 6.5%. They are often enjoyed in cooler weather and pair well with hearty foods like grilled meats and rich desserts. This style showcases the creativity of American craft brewers in experimenting with traditional beer recipes.
