Funky aroma, with a bit of malt. Not entirely sure what I am picking up in here. Flavour is mostly malty with a hint of hoppy bitterness.

Malty aroma with a hint of chocolate. Some hints of chocolate malts in the flavor. A little watery, but overall not a bad beer.

Darker amber color, thin head. Lighter caramel aroma. Nutty, some off plastic flavors. Thinner. Its drinkable.

Oakes (10191) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - MAR 21, 2004
Light chestnut colour. Slight caramel notes in the aroma. Slightly nutty, plasticy flavour. Take away the plastic and this wouldn't be so bad.

Tessic (631) - Brantford, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 31, 2003
This beer has a nice tan head with a rich dark colour. The beer has hints of roasted coffee and almost a grape scent to it. Included in the flavour is also roasted coffee and malts. The body is a little watery and the finish is the same. Altogether a average dark ale. Good non the less!

CapFlu (3798) - Victoria, British Columbia, CANADA - MAY 2, 2003
UPDATED: MAY 4, 2003 (Bottle) My final request of my friend upon his completion of his masters at the University of Waterloo, "bring me your beer!". Pours a thin almond head and a very dark reddish-brown body. Aroma of strong malt and floral hops. Flavours of caramelized malt, smoky and hoppy. Lightly carbonated feel with a slight bitter finish. Very good.

Cartoonkhaki (1177) - Brantford, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 18, 2003
Sweet malt hop aroma. Very dark reddish amber. Thick light brown foam that goes to a thin lace around the edge of my glass. Malt, sweet dark caramel with a very, very subtle roasted bitternes. I can almost taste the alcohol when the bitter aftertaste kicks in. Creamy, smooth, bitter in the finish. Refreshing though. There is nothing overpowering about it and it relativly mild all the way through.
