This Brown ale poured a deep copper colour with a creamy, off white head with nice lacing. Scents include toffee, light hops and maple. First swig was sweet and quite thin with flavours of maple, very light cocoa and a flavour of something I can’t figure out. Finish is slightly bitter with that light maple flavour lingering.

This Mocha stout poured a deep black colour with a creamy, deep brown head. Nice lacing. Scents include black toast, smoke, dark chocolate, coffee and a little cardboard. First swig was delicious. Not quite as creamy as it looked like it was going to be but flavourful nonetheless. Flavours of coffee, dark chocolate, vanilla and cream just to name a few. Finish is roasty with chocolate coffee flavours lingering.
