On tap. Pours a very dark brown with moderate head. Aromas of sweet vanilla, dark caramel, chocolate and glazed donuts. Flavors follow with nutty chocolate pastry and roasted malts. The nuts add a bitterness that doesn’t really complement the sweet pastry stout this should be.

Can, Legacy. Dark brown, with a thin head. On the nose, this is actually quite chocolatey, with a bit of vanilla. On the palate, it has a relatively full, sugary, creamy body. There's a good depth of roasted, chocolatey dark malts here, along with a respectable amount of bitterness for a pastry stout. Still, there's a touch of vanilla sweetness in the finish that helps to round this out, along with just a hint of alcohol. Honestly, this doesn't taste much like any cannolo I've ever had, but yet there's still a bit of that pastry stout character intact, and a rich stout base. I'm digging this. Can't believe they wrote "cannolis" on the ingredient list, though.

473mL can, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma is quite sweet and adjunct-heavy, with coconut, hazelnuts, cocoa and vanilla, with a touch of toasted malt. Flavour is along the same line, with lots of coconut, vanilla, toasted nuts, and toasted malt. Rich, robust, sweet but not cloying, and well-rounded. Excellent.

Tall can from Strathcona shared with Jonathan and Andrey. Pours a dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is cannoli, haha with lots of chocolate and sweetness. Taste is similar with moderate sweetness. Very nice for what it is.

Black colour. Very nice aroma, chocolate bar. The flavour too seems to focus on the chocolate, it's lean but also moderately sweet, some vanilla.
I hope no cannolo was harmed in making this beer.

473mL can, pours a totally opaque cloudy peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is quite yeasty, with plenty of dank hops, pithy stone fruits, and lots of chunky yeast. Flavour is along the same lines, with pithy stone fruits, lots of chunky yeast, and dank hops. Finishes quite bitter and yeasty. I think I may prefer the original, but this is nice enough.

Can from Strathcona, Vancouver
The usual murky yellow colour, with generous frothy head. The aroma is very fruity, it starts with pink grapefruit, then a touch of guava and white grapes. The mouthfeel is lean, yet it has some residual sweetness, but well dosed, with a delicate and crisp malt background, a touch of toasty oats, and then an explosion of resiny hops, bitter citrus peel, sweet orange; it's juicy, but also more bitter than the average NEIPA, which is appreciated, possibly even a bit pithy, bitter almond finish.
Somehow unusual, but excellent.
