341 ml bottle in a mixed pack from LCBO, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass. 16AU11.
App.: Clear mahogany, decent light tan head.
Aroma: Fairly nice, fruity dark malts, some dark dried fruits, light, cola-like herbals, reasonably earthy, a touch of corn?, a little brown sugar, caramel, toffee, a touch savoury, with soy sauce notes, nice.
Palate: Medium body, fairly full effervescence.
Flav.: More austere than the nose, hints of dark malts in a more British fashion, earthy, slightly nutty, not as welcoming as the nose, hints of raisins; dry with some bitterness and a lacklustre finish.
One of their better offerings, though still not awesome.
