Smells like milk chocolate from the get-go. Pours pitch black with some foam that disappears quickly. Pretty thick palate without being syrupy. Lots of booze in the aftertaste here. Some bitterness from the booze as well as sweetness. It’s ok, but not quite as balanced as the Barenaked ladies beer and a little less body. On cask at volos.

This imp stout poured a deep black colour with a creamy, tmed brown head with little lacing. Scents include chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. Plus metal, Nestle Quick powder and bran. First sip was thick and rich and syrupy with very strong chocolate flavours, light brandy and leather. Finish is syrupy with chocolate flavours lingering forever...

Tasted Feb 2012. Aroma: Hoppy with lemon, green grass and flower accents. Very pleasant nose. Appearance: Typical brown, very clear. Beautiful long lasting creamy head with good lacing. Taste: Attack is all hop flowers with a lot of greenery accents. Malt, with it’s caramel and a bit of smoky notes, is taking over after. Finish is all bitterness. A very good ’’almost’’ pale ale? Naaa! Pale ale to me.

Bottle - As soon as opened the room filled with the aroma of chocolate. Deep black with a minimal head. Tastes of milk chocolate ending with a cocoa nib slight bitterness. Considering the heavy alcohol content, there is nothing of this in the flavour. A full bodied beer that should be shared.

Bouteille 355ml étiquetée sous le nom "Flying Monkeys Amber Ale" mais avec le logo pareil à la bouteille Robert Simpson Amber Ale. De couleur ambrée pâle et claire. Nez de grains de malt sucrés et légèrement rôtis, léger de houblon herbeux et aux notes florales avec des notes de caramel, de noix et de miel. Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture légèrement aqueuse et avec de faibles notes crémeuses. Léger goût de grains de malt grillés avec quelques traces fruitées (agrumes) dès l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute rapidement un côté plus sucré des grains, rappelant le caramel avec des traces de biscuits puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume asséchante de houblon à la fois floral et herbeux (gazon mouillé). Post-goût moyen-court et aux notes sèches, légèrement amer de houblon herbeux et floral avec quelques traces rôties.

A golden ale with a thin white head. In aroma, interesting mix of kiwi and raspberry juices, with lemon notes and malt. In mouth, a sweet cloying mix of big malt with berry juices, a bit fake, lemon acidity, not very good. On tap at Arrow and Loon, Nov. 14 2012.

Bottle: Poured a dark almost black brown with a off white to light tan head. Aroma is citrus and roasted malt. The taste hits you head on with citrus hops and yet doesn’t overwhelm the nice roasted sweet malt that balances this beer perfectly.
