Bouteille 650ml. De couleur brune foncée et claire. Nez de sirop d’érable, de malt rôti aux faibles notes fumées (fumée de bois), moyen de sucre brûlé avec des notes de chocolat noir et des traces de houblon herbeux. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture légèrement aqueuse et aux petites notes sirupeuses. Goût de sirop d’érable (présent en arrière-goût toute la gorgée) accompagné de notes de fumée de bois lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute rapidement un goût de malt rôti/ grillé avec un léger goût de chocolat noir et de faibles notes de sucre brûlé puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume de houblon herbeux ainsi qu’un léger goût boisé (bois humide). Post-goût moyen et aux notes sèches, légèrement amer de rôti avec des notes de chocolat noir et de houblon herbeux ainsi qu’un restant de goût sucré de sirop d’érable.

Bottle: Poured a deep burgundy color bock with a small foamy head with minimal retention and no lacing. Aroma is intensely sweet with an overabundance of primary sugar. Taste is cloying with way too much sweetness – totally gross and a drain pour. I can’t really understand what they try to do here but this is definitely the worst maple beer I had and I had some pretty bad one previously.

In a nutshell, Trafalgar is becoming the Frères Houblons of Ontario....sour and infected...enough said.

This bock pours a near black colour with nice tan creamy head. Scents include molassass, roasted malt and maple syrup. First taste is thick feeling. Almost syrupy, go figure. Smooth, almost undercarbonated. Slight metallic taste. Strong roasted malt/molassass flavours. Very sweet, almost sickly sweet. To put back this whole bottle I’m feeling it would be like drinking a bottle of syrup. The finish is almost oily with a way too strong sweet flavour. I’m gonna try to finish it but I’m not gonna like it. My wife and I had a bottle each. Totally different flavours. Hers tasted like malt vinegar....
