21/669)  Tiger Tripel by Nøgne Ø of Norway;  1/2;  9% abv;  there is a hint of peaty smoke to nose;  smoky finish, almost bitter gingeriness but it's all drowned out by the most off-putting smokiness I have yet to encounter;  it's like drinking an ashtray - in some circles smoked beers are appreciated so if it's your thing don't let me put you off but it was one of my worst beer experiences in a long time;
