Sampled at the Arrow & Loon. Pours a hazy light yellow colour with a soapy white head and decent lacing. Nice spices in the aromas with mild wheat. Citrus taste with a little grain and a short aftertaste. Gets better with food. A nice bite in the finish with a dryer mouthfeel. Interesting brew, but not sure for the style.

Sampled at the Loon. Pours a hazy dark amber colour with a light-beige small head with not much lace. Wow... big coconut oily aromas. Same in the taste, but you get a bit of mild malts, sugars from the brown ale side. Oily mouthfeel. A little much perfume of the coconut to consume a full pint, but a real interesting idea to blend both. Luckily I had the half pint.

Pours a real dark brown colour with deep red highlights, a creamy beige head, good retention with some nice lacing. Beautiful nose of licorice with soft roasted malts, all balanced by a nice sweetness. Almost chocolate notes. The taste starts off with a little bitterness, dryness with the black licorice. The roasted and chocolate malts appear in the middle to come back to the start. Smooth mouthfeel. Quite a nice stout with well-blended anise.

Pint enjoyed at the Loon. Pours a light-brown colour with amber highlights. Dark fruity malts nose with mild roasted notes and molasses. Fruity and roasted malt flavours that are light, but with grassy hops in the middle and a nice nutty finish. Some coffee notes as well. Refreshing mouthfeel with a little dryness. An overall nice nut brown with decent hops, but yet still quite refreshing.
