This stout poured a deep black colour with a creamy, tan coloured head. Not bad lacing. Scents include paint thinner, coffee and a little cocoa. First swig was smooth and creamy with flavours of coffee, burnt toast and Melloid cough drops. Finish was roasty as hell with that velvety coffee flavour lingering.

Hazed golden-orange colour with a white frothy-foamy head that disappears rather quickly, but leaves nice thick lacing. Smells a little too hoppy for a witbier, but some yeast and orange notes balances things a little. The taste is much closer with the orange peel, mild coriander and wheat flavours. The body is a little too heavy to be fully refreshing, but all-around not bad.

Pours a real dark brown colour with hazy ruby highlights. The head is creamy, mocha-coloured, long lasting with some great lacing. Beautiful sweet aromas of cocoa powder, sugars, over roasted malts. Hops do come out after breathing. The taste is milder, with some watery burnt malts, meaning not too sweet like the nose. Not too rich. This helps the drinkability. Light hops in the finish. Easy stout is easy drinking.

Pours a clean amber colour with a big frothy warm cap, decent lasting with lots of lacing. Grassy leaf hops over caramel malt aromas. Same for taste, but the hops finish quickly leaving a watered down caramel taste. This hops has smokey notes. Not bad, but not my favorite Oktoberfest to be honest.

This brew pours a brown-black color with a medium creamy light beige head that diminishes gradually to a dense film. Small sheets of lacing. Roast malt, coffee and chocolate in the nose. Light to medium body with a roasty malt character and notes of milk chocolate and coffee in the background. The finish is sweet with a chocolate malt aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy pale yellow-orange under a slow fading white head that leaves some lace. Nose is yeast, light coriander, grains, light honey and citrus. Light+ sweet with an equivalent bitterness and a slight more prominent spice than in the nose. Slightly thin slick mouth with average carbonation. Balance is decent and spice fades a bit as it warms. 7/4/6+/3/14-
