Who's been drinking this

Tasty, not overly smoked.
Has the smell of a smoked bacon but the smoked taste is thin itself. Slightly tangy taste overall but leaves mouth feeling sappy/dry.
The best smoked porter I've had - sweeter and less bitter, with less of a tarry cigarette flavor, but the smoke was still hard to take after a bit.
I can taste the Cleveland...
