| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 16, 2004 650 ml bottle. Cloudy dark amber beer with a very thin off-white lace. Low carbonation. Fruity aroma underneath a load of diacetyl. Flavour is okay, banana and berries, but it’s tough to get past all of the buttery character. Slightly sweet finish. I’m not sure if these were stored improperly or what. Lubiere (4491), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 28, 2007 A deep dark reddish ale with a thin off white head. Aroma of chick pea puree, caramel and butter. In mouth, a ratbuher sourish malt with buttery notes, burned toast and oily mouthfeel. Boring. From LCBO Kingston, Oct. 2007. BB Jan 2008.

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 7/20 | Jun 25, 2003 (650ml bottle) Pours a deep cooper body, slight sediment, and thin, quick-dissipating, white head. Toffee and malt aroma with a canny TIN nose. Sour malt. Interesing flavour - not expected - sour malt, malt, toffee... Very bizarre. Below average... Drain pour...
