Nov 4, 2009 I had this b4 but since it was a long time ago, I bought another(how many have I had now? I dunno)and reviewed it this past Halloween. If you wanna see myyoutube for it ask me for the link in a msg.Privite msg I guess. I am not sure what I was tasteing here,but I thought I recalled likeing it more then I did this time. I don’t know dark beer’s well as the only other(I think dark beer)I recall ever having was Mill street’s coffee porter long ago. This drink is worth having every october like on Devil’s Night and or Halloween. But to put some aside for another time during the yr...Mabye not. It’s not horrible but I am not loveing it. No pun with Mcdonald’s saying.(If that make’s sence)

Oct 27, 2009 473 ml can sampled 6/4/08. Very dark brown amber colour with a fully lasting frothy and creamy beige head. I’ve had brown ales that weren’t even close to this dark. Caramel, bready, fruity, nutty, and lightly earthy aroma. Bready, earthy, and light brown sugar malts with an earthy, fruity, and nutty bitter finish plus a light acidity. Medium bodied, firm mouthfeel. Enjoyable brown ale – nothing really Pale Ale about it.

Oct 27, 2009 can. Poured clear auburn with a medium tan head. Nice citrus hoppy aroma. Smooth full mouthfeel. Tonnes of flavour, caramel, raisens, and smoke. And finishes just bitter enough with a light dry palate.

Sep 23, 2009 473 ml black can bought t LCBO store on Yonge Street. Quite dark for a pale ale; sort of a caramel color. Nice body, light fizz. Seems British to me (not an APA). Malt forward, but with a decent hop presence as well. The hops aren’t US citrus/pine. Long aftertaste; not really clean. Nice job by the other Great Lakes.

Sep 2, 2009 Beauty of a Dark amber-brown pour with an off white head.
Aroma is sweet malt, caramel and toast, with some fruity hop coming through.
Contrary to initial impressions, the flavour is more hop forward, resinous and slightly fruity. Backed by a medium toasted malt body that has burnt caramel and some nutty tones as well.
Medium bitter finish.
