I had never heard of Three Heads Brewing Company when I saw Bromigo on tap. Finding a beer I have never seen naturally made me want to try it. I never expected to find what is without a doubt the best beer I've had to date. Bromigo is a smoked maple amber, and my experience with both smoked ales and maple amber ales have both left me with a slight distaste for the styles, and I figured that a beer that encompasses both styles would leave me with a further disliking of smoked and maple flavored beers. However, I was completely blown away by this beer. The smoke and maple flavors are mild, but the beer still has quite a bit of sweetness to it. This smokey sweetness was complimented by even more sweetness coming from being served to me in a pint glass rimmed with brown sugar and cinnamon. The only downside to this beer is that the brown sugar, cinnamon mix left the glass very sticky, but since I was at a bbq restaurant, there was no shortage of wet-naps. It should be considered a sin if someone tries this beer and doesn't like it.
5/5

Happy New Year 2012
