Fruity funky aroma, beets/root vegetable like notes. Flavour is fruity, cherry/beets, weird vegetal character. Slight tang and bitterness. Average palate. I think I prefer the wood version. 5/3/4/3/9 - 2.4 Trafalgar brewed keg, on tap at Black Creek blankboy (3251), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 23, 2009 Draught at C’Est What Spring Festival. Pours a hazy orange-brown with a spare diminishing off-white head. Mild aroma of lightly roasted malt and light dark fruit. Slightly watery flavour of lightly roasted malt, a bit of hops and some dark fruit. Light to average bodied. Nothing bad here, but to me, it’s quite ho-hum.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 1, 2009 Draught. At C’Est What Spring Fest. Slightly hazy deep copper with a decent frothy beige head (3+). Roasy, slightly creamy aroma, mild, dry and herbal. Nutty, slightly burnt caramel flavour, cereal grain and quite herbal - I think I was the only one to actually like this beer. Average body, solid (almost too much) carbonation, with a deep roast/slightly burnt linger. Damned good, if you ask me. garthicus (1311), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
