Elevation Beer Company Prostator Smoked Doppelbock

With the September shipment from the Michael Jackson Rare Beer of the Month Club, I received a bottle of the Elevation Beer Company Prostator Smoked Doppelbock that benefits Pints for Prostates. The beer pours a dark brown color with a foamy cream colored head that leaves a thin lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of smoke, barbecue, raisin, caramel, and malts. The taste is smoky and smooth at the same time which is remarkable. There is some raisin, malts, and caramel flavors that make up the base before a wonderful smoke content comes into play and dry out the flavor. It brings along with it some barbecue flavors and charred coals. The alcohol content is 7.5% ABV. I really liked the smoke addition to a strong a chewy beer style that really balances out the beer very well.
