Oct 30, 2008 Pours a jet black color with a minimal tan head. Aroma has some strong sweet roasted malt and and a lot of woodiness. Some dark fruit and licorice are also present. Flavor is very intense roasted malts and a bit of smokey bitterness. Roasted nuts and coffee beans add some more bitterness in the finish that is very smooth and easy. Medium-full body and average carbonation. Very nice stout that had a complex flavor and doesn’t try to add too much sweetness.

Oct 30, 2008 Flask from LCBO. Coffee and chocolate aromas prevail - semi translucent pour. Seems much higher-gravity than a typical plain stout, almost like an Imperial in some ways. It has a little more power and richness than I was expecting, while still having subtle nutty/toffee top notes on the finish (rather than the almost soya saucelike qualities of some Imperials.). It seems really well put together & fresh like it is unpasteurized. First class.

Oct 30, 2008 Bottle pours opaque black with thin tan head. Aroma is coffee. First taste is sweet and roasted malt. There is a slight cream flavor but roasted malt carries throughout the whole beer. The finish is clean and there is slight coffee aftertaste. Pretty good stout.

Oct 29, 2008 Bottle from the LCBO- Deep opaque black pour is capped with a thin, but lingering layer of mocha froth. Milk chocolate in the nose leads to musty dark chocolate, some faint grassy hops, black coffee, with a lactic presence. Tastes of semi sweet dark chocolate, a lactic milky blast follows, leading to coffee, anise, and a decent hit of bittering hops. Creamy and bitter finish, with a nice lingering lactic aftertaste. A favourable beverage to ward off this particularly cold October evening.
