UPDATED: SEP 6, 2007 Bottle. Clear copper red with a thick head that disappears slowly. Aroma is rich fruity malty with a slightly roasted touch and some spicy and earthy hops. Quite dry with a light sweetness and a firm and long bitterness. Lovely!

Tall billowy head. Tan brown. Nutty, toasty aroma. Very malty flavor- coffee, walnut, chocolate. Lightly spicy-tea notes and earth in the finish which lingers very nicely. Impressive ESA.

Quevillon (1955) - Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, CANADA - APR 27, 2006
Courtoisie de HogTownHarry. Couleur de terre cuite, pas beaucoup de collet. Arome réchaufant de maltes et d’épice. Goût d’épice et de fruit du vergés. Une vraie délice!

Bottled. Pours a beautiful dark caramel body with a big head. Strong dark/burnt chocolate/coffee taste. Pretty good!

Delicious English ale. Good flavor and tastes like I’m sitting in a pub on Tottenham Court Road. Full flavored and smooth as a Brit.

Nice looking deep brown pour with decent foamy tan head. Caramel, oak, brown sugar, earthy, and mildly boozy aroma. That just smells damn interesting. Somewhat sweet, malty taste, the extra alcohol adds a pleasant kick to the finish. This is just damn good.
