Quevillon (1323), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada Jun 29, 2007 Bu en fut à St-Arnould (20 oz). Brune noircie, petit collet beige avec de la dentelle. Arome de malte chocolaté, avec des notes légés de caramel et de petits fruits sûrettes. Goût de chocolat malté amère, des pressances de fruits rouges et de café. Pas mal! french tickler (505), Aylmer, Quebec, Canada Feb 12, 2007 Updated: Mar 9, 2008Drank in a trappist glass. Obvious pitch black poor with a thin brown head. Yeast is the predominant aromas, added the black coffee beans and dark non sweetened chocolate. Mmm... did not expect this to the palate... very well balanced stout... good bitterness, very creamy mouthfeel... Taste is preaty good considering its 4.5%... I didnt have any expectations drinking this... But it did impress me! Bierotherapeut (42), Canada May 29, 2007 Arôme torréfié/chocolaté. Un stout sec et mince qui développe des flaveurs bien définies de malt et de céréale torréfié. C’est rare de goûter à un stout aussi rafraichissant. Boutip (1815), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jul 9, 2008 Bottle: Poured a deep black color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of light roasted malt notes with some coffee notes as well. Taste is also dominated by some light roasted bitter notes with some medium dry coffee notes and some subtle black chocolate notes also recognisable. Full body with good carbonation for the style. I thought this was lacking a bit of character but still very enjoyable for the style. beerbuzzmontreal (2747), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Jul 15, 2007 Pours a black color with small brown highlights and a medium diminishing tan head. Dominating aroma of molasses with some roastyness. The molasses are less dominating in the flavor but it’s still there, the roasted/toasted maltyness and coacoa is more expressive in the flavor, it feels more sweet than dry in the finish. The body is light with an oily texture and moderate carbonation. This is not a great stout but still I kind of like it, it’s easy to drink.
