The beer pours a translucent ruby red with a short-lived generous head. Aroma is tart fruit, malt, some roast, and caramel. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Not digging the flavour as there is a cherry cough syrup like taste to go along with caramel and roast.

The beer pours a slightly hazed light gold with a white cap that quickly fades to a ring. The aroma is light fruits, grains, and yeast. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavour is grass and yeast, with some light fruity notes. Easy to drink, but not something I would try often.

The beer pours a solid black colour with a generous brown head and a beautiful cascading action. Aroma is dark chocolate, coffee, and some vanilla hints. Mouthfeel is full-bodied and well carbonated. Flavour is rich chocolate, black cherry, and hints of vanilla and alcohol. A very rich and heavy beer. Definitely an all-night sipper. Marked down for overall because $13.95 is too much for 750ml. 750ml of Witches Brew and 750ml of LTM Oktoberfest cost $13.15 combined on the same trip!

Beer appears a translucent reddish-gold colour with a creamy tan head that laces well. Aroma is grass, caramel, and fruity sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavour is sweet malt, grain, fruit and hops. I felt it was more of an Marzen/Oktoberfest in flavour than a bock, but still quite good.

A latecomer to the LCBO Fall Release program (just started showing up in stores this week). The beer pours a slightly hazed ruby red colour with a generous tan head that lasted a minute or so. Aroma is pumpkin, malt, funk and spices. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with medium carbonation. Flavour is grainy malt, pumpkin, and spices. Well put together, but not outstanding.
