Pours a slight hazed golden-amber colour with a fizzy off-white head that does not stay long, with no lacing. Very whiskey rye aromas with some butterscotch notes, vanilla and something that is quite spicy, but piercing, so not in a good way. Kind of medicinal, from weird hops. The taste is sweet on the butterscotch side with the wood nicely blended in and some hints of smoke. A little too rich overall, but a decent rye and oak wood infused brew. A nice try, but must balance things more - and get rid of this sharp smell.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy deep amber under a small quick fading off white head.Nose has lots of wood and whiskey with vanilla, caramel and honey. Light+ sweet honey under a light grassy bitterness and a middle with lots of wood, spice and a touch of smoke. Mouth is a little thin with very soft carbonation and a shorty woody finish. Nice balance but would be better with improved carbonation. 8/3/7/3-/14-

This lagered ale poured a amber colour with a creamy off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include dough, cream, a little corn and mild hops. First swig was smooth with med/low carbonation. Finish is smooth and malty with a little hoppy bitterness lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

An orange tinted gold with a light beige head and a malty black pepper and sweet malt aroma complemented by herbal hops. Medium bodied with a slightly rough body, the taste is malt forward with a very mild hop bite. Eh, ok.

Tasting at Matt’s; can
Light amber color, hazy. Some aroma of strawberry and flavor of cereals; off-dry but not weak; correct bitterness.
Tastes cheap.

Pours a clean amber colour with an off-white cap that does not stay too long, but does leave some decent lace. Fruity malt aromas with caramel notes and some different smell. A mix of rusty water, vanilla, sharp plastic and leaves. The flavours have some roasted malts, bread notes, caramel and the weird hops again. Not as bad as it sounds, but the balance is not there because of this. The malts are fine.

Pours a clean light-amber colour with an off-white head, decent retention and nice creamy lacing. Spice aromas with some honey, rye grain, sourness, butter and fruity malts, so a little all over the place. The taste is pretty oaky with some orange notes and the vanilla. A little too rich on the oak. Not enough rye to balance things.

500mL bottle, sent from wilco (thanks a lot, Mike), pours a hazy orange amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out biscuity malt and a touch of floral hops -- quite stale smelling. Flavour is dry and uninteresting, with biscuity malt, some dry hops and a rather unpleasant stale quality. Pretty pointless creation. Dry, stale and biscuity on the finish.
