Bomber. Pours a nice reddish black with a sizeable tan head. The aroma is slightly chocolatey with a milky sort of sweetness and some fruity tones. The flavor is mildly roasty with some toasted almonds and fruit peels. It gets a slight ashy quality toward the finish and peters out quickly. Decent.

Black colour with a frothy tan head. Roasted malty aroma with notes of coffee and dried dark fruit, smells old and dusty. Light roasted malty flavor with fruity notes. Clearly to old.

Bottle. Ratebeer Christmas in Oshawa, December 2007. Black body with a small tan head (3+). Odd vegetal, raw pumpkin notes in the aroma, malt. Light tangy character to the roast malt flavour. Palate is thin for the style. Dull, did not particularly care for this one. 6/4/6/2/12
