0.473l can from Lansdowne Farmers’ Market, Ottawa. Aroma of caramel, toasted malt, grass and coffee. Pours murky dark brown color with thick creamy light brown head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet and rich toasted malty, following is caramelly and dried fruity, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is mild bitter. Full body, creamy texture and lively carbonation in palate. Heavy load for a cyclist…

A dark, unfiltered dark mahogany body with a fluffy cream coloured head. The nose is understated with anticipated caramel malt and a touch of fruity hops. The taste profile leads with caramel, biscuit malt and some dark berries, but it is pretty unspectacular. There is a slightly metallic edge to it. Medium density and smooth mouth feel. A slightly sweet finish is to be expected. The \"Heavy\" is indeed \"Wee\".

Can: Poured a clear copper color ale with a medium size off-white foamy head with OK retention and some light lacing. Aroma of dry caramelized malt notes is OK for style. Taste is a mix of dry caramelized malt notes with light residual sugar notes. Body is light with good carbonation. Easy drinking for the style with limited amount of complexities.

Enjoyed at Craft Beer Market. Pours a brown colour with a beige head and decent lace. Some dark fruits in the smell with a caramel base. Hints of farm aromas. The taste is the same, but a little milder. An easy-drinking Wee Heavy that is not too rich for the style, but hits the spot.

A murky dark amber ale with a thin mocha head. In aroma, sweet caramel malt with light herbaceous character, light nutty notes, a tad vegetal. In mouth, a sweet caramel malt with grassy floral hops, light licorice, herbaceous character, OK. On tap at Cornwall Summer Beer fest 2016.
