From the label

“Label reads 'STOUT BREWED WITH SMOKED MALT AND CANDY CAP MUSHROOMS' — smoked malt is the defining specialty ingredient. The beer is a stout with smoked malt as a primary character ingredient; smoked_beer is chosen over stout_other because the smoked malt is explicitly foregrounded in the style descriptor. The mushroom adjunct pushes it toward spiced_beer territory but smoked malt is the stronger signal. TTB class 906 (malt beverage specialties) corroborates adjunct use.”
