Draft pours black with thick tan head that quickly reduces to lace. The aroma of coffee and chocolate is stronger than the flavors it teases. Creamy mouthfeel, nice dry and slightly bitter finish. Very nice!

Tasted at Daniel’s Ale House, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada

473mL can. Pours clear gold with small white head. Faint hops and a bit of weird yeast on the nose. Flavour has dried grass, old pine, a bit woody. Hop expression is a bit tired. Not particularly good.

473mL can. Pours hazy blonde with white head. Grassy, stonefruit hops on the nose. Flavour has stonefruit and a bit of citrus up front, supported by sweet, almost cloying malts. The stonefruit is coming through quite clear, but the overbearing sweetness ultimately makes it a bit hard to drink; should have something to counterbalance.
