Commercial Description:
Un genre d'hybride bière/tawny/cognac... Des fruits, cerises, dattes, caramel et tout le pataclan sur une finale toute chaude d'alcool. Une gaterie à partager avec l'être cher.

For me the brewer, it's not made to be an American Strong Ale or something else. It's made to be a kind of barley based port-style with very little carbonation, just enought to protect it against oxydation.

Bottle from Beerbuzzmontreal. He recommended this as being underrated. He was right. Sweet caramel malt aroma with a hint of heat. Dark brown body with red highlights. Full palate. The taste follows the aroma with more brown sugar falvors and some light fruits. Excellent brew.

Bottle. Pours root beer color with a small head but expected from the huge gravity in this. Aroma is light dried fruits with caramel and cocoa. While from the fridge it’s a bit cold, the sticky sweetness really comes through. This really is a dessert beer. Im not sure of the vintage but it tastes like this has some time under its belt. It could probably use another 10 years or so.

341 ml bottle via trade with luiss - Pours a dark amber color with a thin off white head that faded quickly. Very little carbonation. Aroma of apple and pear. Flavor is fruit and toffee. Palate is slightly dry. Medium to full body. Alcohol isn’t over bearing. Good beer. Thanks Luis.

341mL bottle from HogTownHarry, no date. Pours a hazy orange brown with a tiny beige head. Aromas of port and tobacco up front, sour cherries, light smoke, molasses and prunes. Flavor is again dominant with port characteristics, a tobacco boozy quality. Other flavors follow much the same as the aroma. Bone dry alcoholic finish with a bit of roasted malt chalkiness. This is a very nice beer overall, though the alcohol does distract a little more than I would have liked in the taste. Medium to full bodied, though leaning a little more towards medium due to the high ABV, , moderate carbonation. Reminds me somewhat of HOTD Adam, but not quite as good.

(Bottle 34,1 cl) Courtesy of Siroy. Pours a pretty, clear, dark orangey brown with a small, off-white head. Vinous aroma with notes of dried fruit. Full-bodied, sweetish body with loads of vinous accents and some raisins. Not much bitterness. Very interesting. 211006
