Commercial Description:
This is a darker offering from Black Oak. Rich smooth taste, slightly roasty and chocolaty. It's a bit less hopped, but still has a fantastic balance with the malt.

Pours murky brown, becomes transparent after a few minutes. Large, frothy, long lasting head. Gorgeous looking. Aroma of grapefruity hops and light chocolate roasted malt. Malt roasted into notes of chocolate carry the flavour over a base of lightly bitter citrusy hops. Medium bodied. Good lacing. Mild, long finish. Not bad at all.

Tap at the victory Cafe in Toronto. Attractive dark brown color. Winey, dark fruit, wood and smoke aroma. Relatively simple malt flavor. Slightly nutty and smoky, but way too think in the mouth. Decent, but lacks complexity.

Dark brown with red tinting. Little to no head. Smells like diacetyl, chestnuts, and plant roots as well as caramel malts. Quaffable mouthfeel. Great roasted malt flavors. Thin finish but in a quaffable way. Light chocolate. Solid nut brown.

341ml bottle. Faint roasty aroma. Dark amber brown with large foamy beige head that thins to a fine line. Disappointing lack of taste. Faint hint of malted hazel with a dry aftertaste.

On draft at Beer Bistro. Deep red pour with a decent head. Nutty aroma. Warm taste of hazlenutes, almonds and warm malts. Very drinkable and well balanced. Prefer this to other nut browns I have had like NewCastle.

Bouteille de 431 ml (6 pac) cheté au LCBO de Summerhill (Toronto), le 13/7/08. Brune noisette, collet mince. Arome de malte légèrement chocolaté, quelques notes de petits fruits. Goût un peu amère, un peu houblonné avec des notes de fruits et noix malté. Une brune simple mais agréable!
