Roast and a little oak. Some chocolate. Black oily pour with ok head. Elements don't mesh super well. Bitter finish with a little caramel. Can.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Dark mahogany colour. Dark caramel character, moderately sweet, bold, alcohol; it's a straigh-forward imperial stout, nothing mind-blowing, but quite tasty.

2021 vintage. Medium. This seems a bit thin, but on the palate it's got a fair bit of molasses/toffee notes. So it's husky, and a bit thin. I'd say needs work.

473mL can sampled at Weathered 2023, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out medium roast and earthy hops. Flavour is rich, with lots of medium roasted malt, plenty of hops, and a touch of earthiness. Balanced well, though a hit jumbled and lacking cohesion. It's good.

355ml can. (2019 vintage) Pours an opaque black with a medium, creamy, short lived, brown head that laces. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel, earth, coffee and a hint of licorice. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, licorice, dark chocolate, molasses, earth, prune and coffee in a dry, mild bitter, light metallic finish. Medium to full body with a creamy, smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Pretty solid, but the light metallic note distracts just enough to keep this beer from being great. Dangerously easy to drink.
