(On tap @ La Souche Limoilou, Quebec City, Nov 28/23) Pours deep copper red with a small beige head. Lots of tart berry and dark fruit in the nose, tangy and lightly lactic, with underlying sweet caramel and light to moderate toasty roast, some spent coffee bitters. Flavour is moderately tart and lightly sweet, mixed berries with a little stewed dark fruit, dark caramel, toast, light coffee/chocolate bitters, finish is quite dry and mineral with lingering fruit and ashy roast. Light bodied, soft carbonation. Interesting, not totally my thing and definitely not the old ale I was expecting (it's a dark sour) but it was well put-together.

A red copper ale with a thin mocha head. In aroma, sweet fruity caramel malt with loads of cherry, light lactic notes, very nice. In mouth, a nice caramel malt with dark fruits, light licorice, treacle, pleasant and smooth. On tap at brewery.
