Can - Toffee and pumpkin spice. Deep jet brown with a small white head. Pumpkin and dark molasses with a cardamom finish. Not bad.

Nice foam, good foam, the kind of foam that's probably the best foam. But the Mexicans should pay for it! A soft orange-copper body though, good yeast funk with solid hints of orange rind and peach zest; the flava flave is heavy on the big oily hops, apricot and mandarin orange. Oily on the mouth. Could use more flavour. But otherwise a good effort, nice drinking, casual and could use more refinement.

Has a decent darker beige head of some creaminess and a slightly transparent dark ruby body. Aroma is watery roasted barley, soft black coffee, and nothing else. Flavour is a nice mellow mix of coffee and molasses, good smoothness, nice mouthfeel and not overbearing. Alcohol is well hidden, though that shouldn't be too surprising as this is on the lower end of an imperial stout strength. Which ain't so bad as it's drinkable. Go get trashed somewhere else.

2018-01-25, bottle from The Gull, North Vancouver, 6-4-6-3-12=31
Brown color, medium head, not very persistent. Aroma of Strong Ale (some malt) with apple. Medium body strength, some caramel, light sweetness, bourbon, a bit sour, the barrel gives some apple taste.
Quite chaotic, and dubious.
2017-12-17, draught at Parallel 49, Vancouver, 7-4-7-3-15=36
Brown color, clean. Nice aroma, but also smells like those oxidized barley wines. Sweet and fruity, dark fruits, raisins, plums, a bit sour, whiskey, with a thinner finish. Like an Old Ale, quite good.

Poured from 500mL bottle [2017]. Dark brown with dissipating beige head. Aroma has lots of bourbon and chocolate and dark fruits. Taste is quite different - sweet fruits, light caramel malt, mild tartness, bourbon gets hidden amongst everything else going on. The aroma was quite good, but the taste did not deliver.

500mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out lots of toasted caramel, bready malt, dried dark fruits, and light oak. Flavour is along the same lines, with dark dried fruits, toasted caramel and bready malt. There's some tartness that kicks in with each additional sip. Not really detecting any barrels at all. Very malty and with quite a lot of depth. Decent stuff, despite the tartness.

Bottle. Medium brown, with a thin head. Aroma has some sticky, toffee notes on the aroma...light alcohol. Fruity, toffee, with a vibrant acidity. Tasty, completely different. It's taking on a life of its own, gaining character with the deep fruitiness, the light stickiness...fun.

473mL can, pours clear dull copper blonde with a small white head. Aroma is very dry and tannic, with lots of dry red apples and earthy notes. Flavour is very dry and tannic, with bone dry red apples, light tartness and a sharp acidity. Simplistic but inoffensive.

Draft - Touch of sour plum. Clear gold with a small white head. Soured plum and some apple notes. Pretty decent for what it is.
