2011-10-30. Black body with a modest fluffy tan head. 3+ Licorice flavour is not super strong, sweet dark malt, mild anise and roast in the finish. Mild aroma, similar dark malt and licorice notes. 6+ Average bodied palate is decent but just a touch thin for the beer. Decent, bit mild overall but enjoyable. Cask Days 2011, Toronto
