Bottle. Body-thin golden honey body, foamy medium ring of bubbles. Looks like a darker pilsner. Nose-very soft, light cream soda, cola notes, flower petals, a little watered down bourbon/wood. Very unique nose. Taste-cream soda, cottony, medium CO2, watered down bourbon, very muted hops, mildly hot, slightly soapy, artificial sweetener, orange peel, weird artificial medicinal aftertaste. Odd and decent.

Golden-yellow in colour with a thin white coloured head, very light lacing. The aroma is very sweet, corn syrup and buttered popcorn. The flavour is again very sweet, more butter than in the aroma, chemical, light caramel. Sweet mouthfeel, medium/light body, mild carbonation. Finishes lingering, harsh.

This is a butter bomb. I think that this might be better suited on my toast than in my beer glass.

330ml bottle from the LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario.
Opened on March 21, 2008.
No date.

Bottle. Pours a toffee colour with a thin, short duration head. Nose is woody, toasty, and sweet. Flavor is very smooth, more wood, sweet caramel and maybe roasted nuts. This was very smooth and was more enjoyable as the beer warmed. Delicious, I would totally have this one again. Thanks to blankboy for the bottle.

Bottle from Kensington Wine Market Beer, Calgary
Golden color, with a thin persistent layer. It has a light aroma of toffee and fudge, very nice. Quite mellow mouthfeel, lean malt flavor, with vanilla and cookies, sweetish; there is also a touch of citrus fruits, maybe even sour. The final is not strong, with this mix of vanilla and citrus fruits. Not bad, but definitively strange.

Bottle, from Waitrose, Lincoln. Gold, thin but lasting white head and quite intrusive condition. Pleasant woody vanilla sweetness, some toffee and a faint citric twang in the nose, quite shortlived in the mouth with an initial caramel sweetness quickly evaporating leaving a brief sense of sourness that fades into a dry phenolic smokiness that lingers aimlessly

Appearance: Clear golden/copper. Alright amount of head. Aroma: Oak and slightly herby. Caramel. Taste: Oaky and smokey. Caramel again. Unpleasant taste. Info: 330ml bottle, 30/3-2008
