The beers a solid brown colour with a thin light brown head. The aroma is a little smoke, a little chocolate, and a little coffee. The mouthfeel is very weak for a stout, almost watery with mild carbonation. The flavour is roasted malt, smoke, and chicoree.

The beer poured a translucent light red colour with a long lasting thin tan coloured head. The aroma was freshly baked bread, some malt, and a small amount of hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with mild carbonation. The flavour was malty, with a little hint of both sourness and bitterness detected on the tongue.....but no discernable flavours to account for either.

The beer poured a crystal translucent dark golden colour with a thin white head. The aroma has some grainy malt hints, some hop hints, as well as some fruity hints like apricot. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, and was lightly carbonated. The flavour was grainy malt, and was very smooth. This went down well

The beer poured a dark brownish-black. When held up against sunlight, there was a trace of light getting throogh. The head was thin, bubbly, and gone in an instant. The aroma was roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied, and slightly creamy. The flavour profile is similar to the aroma, roasted malt with a definite cocoa like taste and feel.

I tried this beer on October 3, 2008 at “Smokeless Joe’s” in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a translucent very pale gold, with almost no head at all. The aroma was all grainy malt with a hint of hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was very grassy…all malt, very little hops. Boring beer, nothing awful, nothing great.
