Lubiere (3122), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Mar 5, 2008 A deep dark translucent brown with a thick moka head. Aroma of brown sugar, butterscotch, and plums. In mouth, a smoky oily malt, with light sweetness, and light British hopping, with nice sustained nuttyness. Medium bodied. Bottle is actually almost a year old, from Capflu if I recall (so from BC) and still a good quaffer.

The aroma is of berries, roasted nuts, and caramel. This brew has a flavor of dark fruit / coffee / spices / and a slight dry finish, There is some nice lacing too !!! Overall i feel this very refreshing and worth a try. ElJefe (506), Rochester, New York, USA May 26, 2008 Pours chestnut brown with a nice, vreamy beige head.
