Can from the lcbo. Jet black pour, with a large mocha head. Nice roast, light soy, light cocoa powder, resinous hop note. Silky, creamy mouth feel, soft carb. Low bitterness, creamy, roasty, resinous finish.

Dark brown colour with some ruby highlights, a frothy mocha-coloured head with average stay, leaving a thin coating on the brew. Roasted barley nose with a touch of dark fruits and hints of molasses. The mouthfeel is smooth, slightly oily, but a nice building hoppy dryness does appear with time. The malted barley continues in the taste with again, a blend of that dark fruitiness, molasses, but some coffee does show up and tad cacao. The grassy-piney mild hops left, lingers. Quite a decent Stout with the roasted malt shinning the whole way, and hops that just come out at the right time.

This stout poured a deep black colour with a brown, creamy head. Nice lacing. Scents include smoke, mild cocoa and molasses. First swig was smooth and creamy with flavours of burnt malt, light smoke, coffee and minimal cocoa. Finish is nicely burnt with coffee flavours lingering forever.
