09maso3 (69), vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Jun 23, 2009 on tap at brewpub. Russet coloured. Bready malty nose appropriate for the style. Also some sweet fruits. Flavor not as sweet as the nose. enough hop bitterness. dry finish KyotoLefty (1371), Kyoto, Japan Aug 27, 2008 Rich, sweet, complex malts, with caramel, dark fruits, and port wine. Bready and biscuity. Not overly sweet; well balanced. Decent dry finish. Very nicely done. TheJester (694), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Mar 12, 2008 On tap at the brew pub. Dark ruby brown with a small beige head. The aroma is quite malty, with some black cherry and a little bit of (slightly burnt) caramel sweetness. The flavour is caramel sweet and malty, with enough roasted malt and hops to keep things from becoming lopsided. Alcohol is well hidden. I don’t think these guys could make a bad beer if they tried. GregClow (2493), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 11, 2008 Draught sample at Pepperwood Beer Festival. Dark ruby-amber colour. Aroma is quite malty and sweet, with dark fruit, a slight toasty/burnt edge, and a hint of hops. Medium bodied. Big caramel flavour, a bit of coffee, well hopped finish with a hint of booze. Big, flavourful, warm - good! Radek Kliber (3926), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada Mar 11, 2008 On tap at brewpub

yarry (370), Waterdown, Ontario, Canada Mar 9, 2008 Pint at the brewery after a tour. A very dark beer with a pleasently lacy tan head. The beer smells of dark caramel sugar and dark fruits such as plums, and dark cherry. It tastes of the same dark fruits with a burnt caramel aftertaste and a full mouthfeel. Sammy (3934), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 5, 2008 Fresh at the brepub. Pours dark brown with lacey head. Aroma is minimally malty, with a touch of tabacco. Taste is malt and some roast, and coffee in the finish. First half pint was more malty, then the bitterness seemed to grow, with the second half pint. Simple recipe but very drinkable. ABove average mouthfeel. mabel (2530), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jan 22, 2008 [1053-20080119] Tap @ Mill St. (Toronto, ON). Coffee roasted malt aroma. Clear, dark red brown body with a medium-lasting foamy light tan head. Sweet coffee grapes flavour has old squishy banana qualities and a bitter roast aftertaste. Medium-full body is a little thin and bitter throughout. Disappointing.
