Bottle. Dark brown color. The biggest foamy head of any stout I have had. A fruity coffe taste and aroma. Really great stout.

Bottle at Black Christmas March 2022
Dark brown colour. Dark malts, it tastes more like a strong Brown Ale, a bit of sourness, but it's not bad.

Poured from 330mL bottle at Black Xmas. Dark brown with small beige head. Chocolate, mild dried fruit, feint sour note, lighter body. Average.

Tasting at Salesforce, bottle
Amber colour; creamy head, persistent. Some malt, and caramel, light sweetness, good body, no malt richness; maybe not a Barley Wine, but it's a solid and not flawed strong brew.

330ml no @ Sales Force. Appearance: hazy copper with a tan head. Aroma: dark fruits, hops, caramels. Taste: along the same lines, very bitter. Overall: harsh, no balance or elegance here.

Poured from 330mL bottle. Hazy amber brown with small light beige head. Caramel and bready malt, decent. Not amazing, but especially considering the cost, quite nice.

330mL bottle, pours a hazy dark amber with a small beige head. Nose brings out toasted caramel, bready malt, and some nuttiness. Flavour is on the thin side, with toasted caramel, bready malt, and some fruitiness. Thin-bodied and not the most complex, but perfectly pleasant and reasonably to style. Lacking body and complexity; I mean, it's nothing special, but for $1.80 CAD, this is a decent barley wine.
