Glacier Brewing Co. releases Winter’s Nite Smoked Porter
Just received an email from David Ayers, head brewer at Glacier Brewing Co., about a new seasonal beer that’s on tap now in Polson. Winter’s Nite Smoked Porter is an imperial smoked porter that “weighs in around 8.9% (alcohol) by volume and has a deep, rich smokiness wrapped around a very well-balanced porter!” It’s only available in pints right now, but if you like it well enough you might be able to fill a growler next week.
I haven’t had a chance to try this. Has anyone out there taken it for a spin?

Stopped by Glacier last weekend and had a tasting flight followed by a pint of the smoked porter. Surprisingly, the Slurry Bomber Stout had more of a smokek character (not always what I go for – reminiscent of Alaska’s smoked porter) than the Winter’s Nite – but as described above, this beer is very well-balanced and the 8.9 doesn’t seem heavy at all.
Well done.
