On tap at Strathcona, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is loaded with cherries, chocolate cake and a touch of toasted malt. Flavour is like drinking liquefied cherry chocolate cake, with a dry cocoa nib character on the finish. Nicely constructed and balanced. Good stuff.

On tap at Strathcona, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out glue, perfume, and funky brett - this is fucked up. Flavour is quite messed up: there is tart citrus, perfume, brett funk, and glue. Bit of cognac underneath. There is definitely some quality stuff lurking underneath, but this is chaotic; there are doubtless some undesirable fermentation issues here.

On tap at Strathcona, pours a cloudy bright golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out moderately dank hops, with plenty of yeast, and biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of chalky yeast, moderate dank hops, and bitterness. Too yeasty for me, but it's made decently enough.

Draught at the brewery, nitro
Black colour. Cardboard, some poop.
Undercarbonated, oily mouthfeel, some roasty malt, carboard, light acidity from the fruit but no evidence of cherry, dry finish.
Ok beer.

Tall can from JAKS NW shared with Andrey. Pours an almost black with a weak dark beige head. Aroma is very pastry with some harsh and not very elegant black forest cake. Similar taste. It's ok.

473mL can, courtesy of fiulijn, pours a murky peachy orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out a lot of pithy, juicy, stone fruits upfront, with citrus hops, light pine, and resins. Flavour follows along the same lines, with loads of juicy, pithy stone fruits, with piney hops, resins, bitter citrus rind, and some caramel malt. Extremely juicy and surprisingly cohesive for such a high gravity imperial IPA. Surprisingly excellent.

Pours black with moderate tan head. Aromas of cold black coffee with some roasted malts. Flavors of acidic black coffee. Nope not really for me, though not really offensive

650 ml bottle. Pours a pale copper with huge head and lots of carbonation. Aromas of green oak, alcohol, burnt fruit and old apples. Flavors are off - vegetables and apples in wood. Something is really wrong.

Black colour with brownish head. The aroma is better, but the flavour is like coffee dredges, it's very roasty, dry, some dark chocolate, a bit metallic in the finish.
