A deep reddish brown ale with a thick light moka head. A very fruity punch aroma with notes of maple, apples, and alcohol. In mouth, a very sweet sugar candy, with cinnamon notes, nutmeg, and light almonds. Rich bodied. Boght at Marche des saveurs, 5.25$ for 500 mL.

A beautiful chestnut amber ale with a thick off white head. Aroma of musty yeast, dark fruits, like prunes, caramel and fusel alcohol. In mouth, an overly sweet beer, with loads of residual sugars which remain long in mouth, some yeasty notes, coriander, and pepper and warming alcohol. Medium bodied. The sweetness is really a put off for me. Way too expansive at 5.99$.

Bottle: Poured a medium copper/brown color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of caramel and toffee malt is quite sweet. Taste is also a mix between some caramel and toffee malt with a very sweet ending. Definitely not a pure dubbel as per style guideline but more of mix between a dubbel and a scotch ale. Body is quite full with some good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Well done overall and something I wouldn’t mind having more regularly.

On tap at Le Saint Bock. Dark mahoghany pour, next to no head. Large aroma of malt, and some dark fruits, like raisins, and plums. Flavour is quite boozy, with notes of yeast, and more ripe dark fruit. But the flavour is cloyingly sweet. Leaves a sticky mouthfeel. Meh, not very good.

Bouteille 500ml. De couleur ambrée-cuivrée et légèrement semi-voilée. Nez de levures fruitées (poires, notes de pêches, de raisins, d’agrumes et de pommes), malté de caramel sucré avec des notes de sucre brun, moyennement épicé (léger de cannelle et notes de coriandre) et avec des notes d’alcool doux et de houblon herbeux. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-fort et une texture moyennement crémeuse et légèrement huileuse. Goût de levures fruitées (agrumes, léger de pêche et de poires et de pommes, traces de prunes et de raisins) avec un moyen goût épicé (coriandre et de cannelle) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de caramel avec des notes de sucre brun et de pain ainsi que des traces de sucre bonbon puis en finale l’on retrouve une moyenne-légère amertume asséchante de houblon herbeux accompagné d’un léger-moyen goût d’alcool aux notes réchauffantes et de levures épicées (poivre). Post-goût moyen-long et plutôt sec, moyennement amer de houblon herbeux et de levures fruitées (zest d’agrumes, noyau de pêche et notes de moût de raisins) avec des notes d’alcool.
