First sip is slightly watery with a strong flavours of rye grain and a bitter finish. Palate is slightly smokey with lingering bitterness.

Oak aged? Rye? I never seem to get Trafalgar beers but for some reason I keep buying them if its new to me. Maybe only day they will make a beer that I actually enjoy.
650ml bottle from the LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario.
Opened on March 13, 2008.
No date.
gilvanblight (341), Windsor, Ontario, Canada Jul 20, 2008 Rusty orange pour with a bubbly head. Warm slightly spicey scent. Really nice taste malty and spicey. A bit flowery. Nice low carbonation. A good balance with a dry finish. Eructoblaster (1253), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jul 11, 2008 Bottle - 650ml. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white frothy head. Decent hoppy aroma with some apple and grapefruit hints. Its hoppy taste lacks complexity and strength, and finish is short. Good, but nothing to get too excited about. Lubiere (3231), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Jun 24, 2008 A nice amber ale with a thick light moka head. A pleasant vanilla aroma, with little acid points. In mouth, rye malt with light oaken wood notes, dry, medium bodied. A good beer for Trafalgar. Bought at LCBO, Ottawa.
