Tumbler is a beer that used to appear regularly but now does so only occasionally. It's a great beer and so I wanted to brew a beer that's similar though maybe not an exact clone. Sierra Nevada posts a few details on their website, which I used to developed the recipe.
This beer is long gone, as I brewed it in the fall of 2022. I recall thinking that the smoke seemed heavy at times, though I think that seemed to disappear the more I drank it. The beer also appeared darker than the real thing. It also had a pronounced char/astringent character from the chocolate malt, so I'd probably dial that back. All in all a tasty beer though.
