Overall, a bit too specific and simplistic, but enjoyable. Quevillon (1524), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 20, 2005 Dark copper body topped with an average off-white bubbly head. Well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with light herbal ans bready notes. Taste lacks complexity and the bitter aftertaste is dominated by woodiness. Not a good dark lager. mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

C’est What. copper body with a persistent small white head. aroma is soft caramel and bread - but fairly quiet in general. sweet caramel malt body - light bitterness and a short, sweet and yeasty finish. mediocre. johnnymutolo (6), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada does not count | 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 22, 2005 Pretty palatable for a dark, but a little weak compared to most others. But decent. They try to make a fine beer and this beer is, well, fine, I suppose. HogTownHarry (4000), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 21, 2005 Bottle (341ml). At Pub Italia, Ottawa. Poured clear amber with a small off-white diminishing head - not bad, but also not DARK. Citrusy hop/malt aroma - like fresh-squeezed orange and grapefruit, medium slightly roasty malt, a touch of oak and yeast - nice. Taste follows the nose, starts juicy sweet finishes somewhat resiny-bitter, and there’s definitely a caramel character in there too. Palate is lightly creamy but a little too flat - medium bodied. This is a lovely brew, but I have a hard time thinking "dunkel" when I drink it - nice and balanced and easy to drink. pintbypint (1006), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Leaves some sticky clingly lace. Malty sweet aroma. Dark sweet malts in the mouth with a dash of roast malts. Bottle from gilvanblight.
