Draft - Light grains, caramel and a touch of pine. Clear gold with a nice white head. Biscuit malts and a light bitterness. Not bad, spruce is subtle which I think is a good thing.

Bomber from the LCBO. Pours a slightly unfiltered golden colour with a big frothy white head, good retention and nice foam-cream lacing. Lots of diacetyl in the nose with the butter and caramel and grain malt in the background. Thankfully, this is milder in the taste with the dandelion leaves coming out in the finish adding some nice different dryness and bitterness. The grainy malt is in the base the whole way. Other than the diacetyl, the rest is pretty good and gets better as it goes. Love the adding of lemongrass and dandelion. Wish it was a little stronger on the lemongrass.

Slight haze, light amber. Aroma is lightly spicy, fruity, taste similar. Light bitterness, cookieish malts, a nice safe amber ale.

Sampled from bottle @ THT November. Clear amber color, small off-white head. Aroma is pretty grainy, don’t get anything else. Tastes very malty and grainy as well with a slight hint of sweetness and nuts. Average body and carbonation. I don’t like it.

Bottle - Bacony smoked malts and some dark fruit. Jet black with a rich beige head. Roasted malts, burnt toast and some chocolate. Not much smoke in the taste, but still nice.

650ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours very dark reddish black with a small tan head that quickly fades. Nose is vanilla and coffee and a hint of smoke. Quite sweet chocolate start with some dark fruit, vanilla and caramel. Smoke is quite subtle and blends well. Medium full slick mouth with soft carbonation. Nice and restrained compared to some smoked porters.
