Sep 4, 2008 bottle at capital grill. Pour was dark with significant head (too dark in room to get accurate color), aroma of coffee, roasted malts. Flavor to match. Good beer.

Sep 2, 2008 355 ml bottle from LCBO, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass. AU17/08.
App.: Very deep ruby with a decent off-white froth.
Aroma: Deep caramel and toffee, light raisins, touches of wood, cherry and light berry, a bit of cardboard.
Palate: Medium+ body, very soft carbonation.
Flav.: Lots of cardboard, less caramel and raisins, light medium-roasted coffee, a touch nutty; somewhat sweet with a little bitterness, a touch of molasses and alcohol in the finish.
A bit old but not awful.

Aug 31, 2008 De couleur tres foncé. Beau col de mousse. En bouche, mélange de caramel, chocolat, épices et bois fumé....L’alchol se fait plutot discret en finale. Différent de se qui se brasse au canada.

Aug 31, 2008 Bottle. Pours almost black with a decent long lasting head. Aroma is of roasted malts and coffee. Flavor is coffee, caramel, and lots of roasted hops. It has a great mouthfeel. This is a very drinkable, not to to heavy beer. Would get again.

Aug 31, 2008 Very dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malts. Taste is sweet roasted malt, cocoa, coffee, some bitter hops, and molasses. The level of sweetness is just too much for me.
