473mL can. Pours black with a beige head. Soft graham crackers and a hint of marshmallow on the nose. Flavour has some dry brown sugars, soggy graham crackers, a bit of toasted marshmallow. Not a trace of bourbon to be found. It's fine, but fairly uninteresting.

473mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Nose is pretty restrained, with gentle notes of graham cracker, a touch of cocoa, and light marshmallow—not much malt base seemingly. Flavour is more like a s’mores porter or brown ale, with plenty of graham crackery, cocoa, and marshmallow, a very thin malt base, light-to-moderate residual sugars that never become cloying mostly because there’s barely any depth here in general. Not a trace of bourbon barrel. Nothing wrong with it, just very underwhelming.

On tap at St. Augustine’s, pours an opaque filthy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is full of hopburn, egregious chalkiness, and nary a trace of anything else. Flavour is only slightly less offensive, with intensely pulpy orange juice, some stone fruits, huge chalkiness, and mild hopburn. Chalk galore on the finish—they should’ve strained the pulp out of this extra extra pulpy OJ. Very poor.

5.9/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
On tap at St. Augustine's. Pours an opaque yellow with a white head. Orange juice and tropical fruit on the nose. Flavour is very juicy; oranges, tropical fruit, and allium. No bite or bitterness to speak of. Fairly inoffensive for a hazy, but not particularly interesting.

473 ml can. Pours a hazy brown with moderate head. Aromas of sulphur, plastic and marshmallows if I think on it; plus some faint milk chocolate and a bit of roasted malts. Flavor of bitter dark chocolate, oak, burnt coffee and roasted malts. Quite a mix up and not hitting target.

On tap at The Magnet. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Coffee, burnt maple syrup, and some roasted malts on the nose. Flavour has lots of toasted bready malts, coffee, some burnt maple sugar, and a nice smokey whiskey on the finish. Very nice.

On tap at Darby’s, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma has straw, toasted grains, and light herbaceous character. Flavour has plenty of herbaceous notes, some crunchy straw, and biscuity malt. Herbaceous and true to style, but a bit crunchy. Decent.

Poured from the tap @ St. Aug's. Hazy blonde with small white head. Simple easy drinking witbier with feint ginger and even feinter mango. Thinner bodied, average, but a decent summer sipper for your non-beer friend. The ginger does give a nice background character, but needs to be bolder.

Poured from 473mL can. Medium dark brown with minimal beige head. Lots of drip coffee on the nose. Coffee forward, very feint whisky, almost no maple. Okay, on par with Superflux Drip series.

473mL can, pours a deep dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is dominated by the coffee upfront, with only faint maple syrup in back. Flavour has plenty of espresso upfront, then the whiskey kicks in. I get no maple syrup. Thin-bodied, but the coffee and whiskey go well enough together. Pleasant but nothing special.
