Brewed with Demerara sugar, Curaçao orange peel, coriander and Trappist Ale yeast, this unique unfiltered stout has a luscious creamy texture and delightfully dry finish. Savour every mouthful.

Bottle from the lcbo. Black pour, with a dark mocha head. Quite a roasty nose, but I can’t find any orange peel or coriander. The aroma is quite sweet also, with a distinct Belgian dubbel Metallica, mineral dry malts aroma. The finish is quite dry, lightly bitter with nice semi sweet roasty notes. A cross between a dubbel and a stout. Roasty, yet malty and dry.

Pours a real dark brown colour with hardly any highlights. Great big beige head, frothy, long lasting and full of lacing. Aromas of chocolate and cocoa at first. Then, it makes room for the roasted malts, which also gives out apples and yeast. The taste is mixed between the roasted malts, burnt grains and the notes of oranges which are quite mild in the finish. Even hints of liquorice. I quite like this brew. Nothing out of this world, but was expecting a boring mild stout.

A dark brown stout with a a thick brown head. In aroma, dark fruits with solvent, cloying, a bit off. In mouth, a bitter chocolate with fruity notes, coffee grinds, some harsh metallic finish, odd.

Pretty well-balanced and tasty. On par with their Hawaiian Pale Ale. Pours black with some head and lacing. I tasted a hint of the Trappist yeast - not so much the orange peel. Maybe a bit of curacao. Roasty malt and some dark chocolate. Finishes a little bitter, a little sweet. Tap at Clinton’s.
