Bottle, pours light red, very dry stuff, pretty sweet, little bit of cherry flavours, ruff finish, but offering a nice attempt at a tuff style
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 jerc (5588) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 29, 2012
2012-02-26. Very dark brown body, nice tan head fades. 3+ Sweet malt aroma with dry dusty malt accents, mild hints at raisins. Flavour is drier than expected. Light bitterness, dry dusty malt highlights tend to grab your attention rather than the sweeter base malt. Light fruit and raisin accents. Grows slightly sweeter as the glass goes on. Smooth average plus bodied palate. Pretty solid take on the style. Bottle courtesy of Tuqueboy

2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 greglikesbeer (33) - Ancaster, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 5, 2012
Pours drrk brown with medium caramell-coloured head. Light malty, yeasty and alcohol aroma. Slightly bittersweet taste with roasted malt flavour. Lacks complexity. Bitter aftertaste is not entirely pleasant. Overall underwhelming brew.

on tap at Volo.
This was disapointing. Dark brown pour with next to no head.
Aroma of light roasted malts, and not much more
light mouthfeel, a tad watery. The flavor was more light malts, minerals, and some light roast. this was pretty boring, not much going on.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 blankboy (4437) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 24, 2012
Draft at Volo. Pours a deep ruby-dark brown with a small diminishing frothy tan head. Aroma of caramel malt, nuts, a bit of sourness, some chocolate, dark fruit and very light hops. Flavour of caramel malt, dark fruit, toffee and bread. Dry finish. Body’s a bit thin. Not bad but I find both the aroma and the flavour just O.K., not my thing I guess.

Draft at the Winking Judge Hamilton Ontario. Pours a opaque brown/ black with a reddish hue. Khaki head and thick ropes of lacing. Smells like sweet syrup and blue berries. Tastes bitter sweet, malt comes through on the finish big time.

Bottle from the brewery. Dark mahogany-brown with a medium sized but quickly disappearing tan head. Nice aroma - very malty, with notes of dark rye bread, dark toffee, chocolate biscuit, and hints of dried dark fruit and mulch. Medium bodied with fair carbonation. Flavour of heavily roasted malt, iced coffee with chicory, and slightly bitter cocoa. Finish is longer, hoppier and drier than is typical of the style, but enjoyable nonetheless. Alcohol is well-hidden - drinks more like a 5.5% than a 7.1%. Very nice, and hopefully a sign of more great seasonals to come from Cameron’s.
