Dark red-amber color, the tan head dissipates quickly. Served too cold. As the style commands, the profile is quite simple: caramel, some malt, moderate earthy hops; but the mild residual sweetness is pleasant, as well is the nutty touch, and the alcohol is well hidden. The malt has some depth.
Sensibly brewed.

Heavily carbonated body with minimal head and a very vague malt aroma. Nice sharp hoppy finish and a bit of malt. Very average.

Very nice creamy head and solid copper body with no carbonation. Lots of creamy stout notes.Flavour is a neither here nor there affair of some barley and hints of lager hoppiness, but all watery and not quite combining into something very appetizing. Dry finish. It doesn’t strike me as well assembled.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours black with a small tan / brown head. Nose is soft, with notes of anise, toasted malt and marshmallow. Flavour is similar, with notes of anise upfront, followed by toasted malt and some slight herbal, vegetal notes. Super smooth palate that makes this easy to drink, even though the flavours aren't so appealing. Decent.

Slight hazy, bubbly head, aroma has some light phenols and a lot of orangey character. Light pale malts, light bitterness, bit of biscuity, and a touch of orangey character. Not bad.

Black color with small compact brownish head. Mild aroma of roasted malts, and the flavor is stronger, but not burnt; the mouthfeel is nice and smooth, solid; dark chocolate too appears here, and it has a good level of bitterness.
More Stout than Porter, graciously brewed.

Cloudy dark blond color with compact head. Decent Belgian Ale, with some earthy yeast character, mild malt flavor, a bit chewy, and luckily the flowers are not really evident. Balanced bitterness.
Pleasant.
