Cask Days 2009 @ volo. dark brown with a soapy tan head. nicely cask carbonated. big hoppy aroma with some roasted malt backing. the hopping in this one is ample and really steals the show from the malts. good one, i hope it sees bottles as well.

Dec 19, 2009 [2614-20091129] Tap. Roasted sweet malt grain aroma with mild chocolate notes. Clear, very dark brown red body with a medium-lasting creamy off-white head and thick lacing. Roasted bittersweet chocolate malt grain flavour has a little bit of spruce hops throughout. Medium-full body. Tasty, could even hold more body.

Dec 5, 2009 On tap at Chancey Smith’s- Thanks for getting this on Milos!- A very deep brown that only lets a bit of light in. Comes topped with a very generous mocha froth that lasted the entire length I drank the beer. Interesting nose is slightly roasty, with fresh leafy hops, citrus, a bit of pine, and vanilla. Tastes interesting. Only slightly of roasted malts and then come the fresh hops, pine, mint. There is some soft fruit towards the end with a bit of oak. Medium bodied. Very much a cross style. Very good job Peter!

Dec 3, 2009 Unlabled bottle from brewery. Pours very dark brown with tan head that lasts. Citrusy aroma, dry medium roasted malt, with a light bit of residual sweetness that tie well together. Smooth full body and finishes with bitter citrus

Nov 29, 2009 2009-11-29. Dark brown body with a modest tan head and lace. Modest aroma has Newcastle like brown ale touches beneath a modestly hoppy character. Muted vegetation, bit mild overall. 6+ Flavour is odd at first, interesting hops, light vegetation, light citrus, mild roast and underlying malt. Pleasant dilute citrus lingers in the finish. Flavours come together better as the glass goes on. Average plus palate suits it. Decent. On tap at Volo, Toronto

Nov 28, 2009 On tap at Volo. Pours a deep clear black to brown with ruby highlights and a thin tanned beige head. Dry roast and sticky piney hop aromas. Just on the thin side of medium with a nice soft roast and chocolate Finishes a bit softer than expected from the hop profile, but with some nice light roast components and a bit of grapefruit bitterness.
