Sep 12, 2009 Spring 2009 vintage thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a tan head over a deep, hazy brown body. Aroma of cork, apple, must, and alcohol. Taste is smokey, butter, leather and caramel. Light bubbles, dry mouthfeel.

Sep 12, 2009 Bottle courtesy of bu11zeye. Clear ruby pour with a strong off white head. Very pretty appearance. Lots of sweet malts with a spice of alcohol. Strong aroma. Some chocolate flavoring with a nice roasted coffee ground finish. Reminds me of Sunday school at the old church. This has very few flaws and is quite drinkable.

Aug 30, 2009 750 ml bottle shared with my dad 09.08.30 : large fizzy head, excellent lacing, ruby in color. Light molasses, caramel, chocolate note. I can smell herbacy hop. Light alcohol this one would be a nice winter warmer. The after taste is long but pleasant. I can detect dark fruit also. Probably there best of the reserve serie

Aug 24, 2009 On tap at Vices et Versa. Dark, opaque, reddish brown with a short-lived beige head. The nose is quite malty, with everything from toasted nuts to caramel to chocolate. The flavour is similar, with the addition of some alcohol, dried fruit and licorice. Nice body and appropriate carbonation. Solid doppelbock, and certainly as good as anything I’ve had in Canada.

Aug 23, 2009 Nice doppelbock. Aroma full of roasted malts, some dark fruits, caramel, and maybe a touch of soy sauce. Roasted flavor, bittersweet chocolate, soy, and coffee. Pretty tasty.

Aug 16, 2009 Atlaggie shared this one. Printemps 2009 issue. GC meaning grand cuvee, what we ran out of room when entering the beer? Anyways, pretty nice and on the full roasted malt side of things. Reminds me much of the duck rabbit version of the style. Cocoa, slight sweetness, and a int of alcohol in the aroma. Flavor is sweet as well followed by a nice roasted malt and some chocolate flavors. A little bittersweet cocoa makes this a nice dessert beer.
