Bottle. It’s copper brown in the glass with a thin white head. The aroma is nice: fruity with some raisin, grape, black licorice, chocolate. Mouthfeel is a bit chewy, medium in body. In the flavour I taste plenty of malt with bread, more chocolate, subtle hops. Finish is long with more hops. A keeper.

Nov 3, 2009 341 ml Bottle (from a 6 pac) purchased at LCBO Rideau and Kigng Edward (Ottawa), 1 November 2009. Copper clear, thin head. Aroma of raw barley malt, some notes of hops. Nutty malt, taste, hints of dry hops, a little bitter, well she has 30 IBUs. It is more malty than hoppy, but it’s good enough I think!

Oct 7, 2009 Pours a deep amber with a medium off-white head that leaves a nice lacing on the glass. Very smooth with little carbonation on the palate. Bitterness in the flavour is not overpowering but leaves notes of citrus and herbs in the aftertaste.

Sep 12, 2009 341mL bottle shared with matt7215, his bottle, thanks Matt. Pours a nice coppery red with a small white cap. The aroma is super malty, chrystal, chocolate, roasted and a tiny touch of earthy hops. Flavour is very malt driven, which is delicious, loads of malt loaf upfront met with lots of dry earthy hoppiness in the finish. The malt body in this one is just spectacular. Vaguely reminiscent of a porter yet somehow without being darker. Very tasty beer, I can’t wait to buy more when the LCBO’s in my area re-stock.
