473mL canc pours a clear dark amber / mahogany with a medium beige head. Aroma reveals toasted chestnuts, some dark fruits, caramel, and bready malt. Flavour follows suit, with dark dried fruits, caramel malt, bready malt, and a bit of toasted nuts. The alcohol can be felt on the finish, with fruitiness and moderate-high residual sugars. Little complexity but the malt profile is nice. Good stuff.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Dark amber colour, clean. Te aroma doesn't offer much, but the flavour is quite interesting; these's caramel, brown sugar, moderate sweetness, malt, some depth; the alcohol and bitterness are balanced.
It's not too complex, but it's clean and well made.

Dark amber-brown. Thin head. Has some of that toffee dark malt...not in that high melanoidin way the classic doppelbocks have. But let's get real, is that even expected in North America? So not a bad beer, but with that asterisk of *for North America.

473 ml can. Pours a deep mahogany color with moderate head that settles quickly. Aromas of golden raisins, toffee, a bit of Christmas spice and rye bread. Flavors of bread crust, root beer, raisins and metallic malts. Light vegetal malty finish.
