TipsyMcStager (1065) - Calgary, Alberta, CANADA - JAN 15, 2003
Fruity, pleasant aroma. Pours a very dark brown, with mild carbonation. Malty, full-bodied taste, almost sweet in the middle. Fairly smooth, can't really taste the alchol until the end.

JoeMcPhee (6965) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - JUL 9, 2004
500 ml can. Dark brown colour with a thick beige head that fades back to lace. Very malty aroma, brown sugar, coffee, roasted malt, and dates. Perhaps a trace of spiciness as well. Flavour is also very malty showing roastiness and demerara sugar. There is no bitterness at all in this one and the alcohol is well-concealed. As the beer warms, more coffee aroma comes out. A surprisingly good brew.

TheJester (1264) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 13, 2006
500 mL can. Deep, dark brown, with beige head that very quickly dissipates to a film. Aroma of molasses and alcohol. Taste of black coffee, molasses, and roast, with hops near the finish. Leaves you with the taste of licorice. Alcohol is not as prominent as expected; it goes almost unnoticed until the finish. I like. It could be dangerous.

thirstyrabbit (540) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - AUG 25, 2010
Can. Pours a mahogany body with a small head. Fruity aroma with brown sugar. Taste has caramel malts and plenty of dried fruits. Good thick mouthfeel. The 7,7% ABV is well hidden. Well, either this or I have become a drunkard.

Light amber coloured with a disappearing head. Malty, roasted aroma. A light spicy taste. Rather bitter aftertaste.
