Cloudy blond color. It starts with the lime, in the aroma and then the flavor; the mouthfeel is quite smooth; in the end there is some more from the orange peel.

Cloudy amber color with compact head. Moderate vanilla aroma , although a bit artificial even if they used real vanilla. Smooth but dry mouthfeel, some malt flavor, cake-like, with light vanilla and cinnamon; regular bitterness. Some late sweetness in the end.
Enjoyable as all Brainstorm experiments, but less impressive than others.

Indeed the aroma directly brings to a cinnamon bun, soft and well constructed. The mouthfeel is semi sweet, the cinnamon is present but not overwhelming.
Pleasant beer.

Dark brown color near black. The smell of old coffee grounds is less than exciting, and alcohol; some burnt impression. Moderately sweet, helps to drink the chocolate and coffee mix, lean mouthfeel, pleasant alcoholic presence.
I have to say that, cream and temperature aside, it reminds quite well of the Irish coffee thing.

Troubled dark brown color near black, with small head. Mild chocolate aroma. Smooth mouthfeel; lean but seducing chocolate flavor, while the sweetness is very moderate; very light fruity and sour touch; strong bitterness. Very balanced.
Excellent as is, but I would dare trying with even more cherries.

2014-10-18, draught at the brewery, 7-4-8-4-16=39
Icebock aroma, caramel and candies. Full bodied, with nice warming alcohol kick, caramel flavor with lingering sourness, old beer oxidized in the end, it’s just an extra. Excellent.
2014-03-10, draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver, poured from a jug, 7-5-8-5-17=42
Hazy dark mahogany color with small head. Strong aroma of apples, fruit flies, cider; medium sour. Full bodied; flavor of caramelized fruits, prunes, raisins, bitter oranges; very sweet and dense but not cloying, sour with moderation, boldly bitter, very woody with high tannin presence; the alcohol is probably less than announced, it’s not so evident.
I love it!
Although 5$ for 1.5oz is too much.

On tap at the Alibi Room for the 500th beer list celebration, pours a dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma surprisingly doesn't smell so busy, but rather brings out dark fruits, sweetness, and a little alcohol. Flavour doesn't taste like 30%, maybe 15%, with notes of caramel, liqueur, dark fruits and an obvious alcohol burn. Surprisingly pleasant, with no off-notes, nor the nasty vinegary quality present in Storm Flanders. Quite a nice gimmick beer.

1 oz pour from the tap. Medium red brown with very minimal off-white head. Aroma quite sour, similar to the Flanders red ale with subtle alcohol nose. Sour taste, some cherry and apple, acetic, alcohol shows through minimally. Medium body, quick finish.

Cloudy amber color. True apple and cinnamon character, quite smooth, drier in the front, with a sweeter impression later. I can almost feel the pie crust too; reasonable bitterness.
Very well done.
