4.16/5  rDev +7.5%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
can 473 ML for 5,99$

Look: Dark brown look. Half finger of browish head

Smell: Nothing much from this really, I was expecting more punch. Coffee, caramel toffee thats it

Taste: Amazing, chocolate, coffee, caramel so smoky wood on the taste from a fireplace. Remind me a lots of camping.

Feel: Medium body, light carbonation, easy drinking very smooth, goes down like water, no bitterness really maybe after 2 min but not much

So overall would I recommend it ? Absolutely

Would I buy it again ? Yes on an occasion

1st from brewer for me. Love Quebecois beers.
a) Creamy lasting lacing head over brown dark body.
s) Smoky (they make a smokier version), woody, chocolate, wood.
t) Follows aroma and bigger. Some x factor near cola but more medicinal.
f) Smooth, mineral, cleansing for a porter.
o) As good as any American Porter.

A: Poured from the bottle into a tulip glass. The beer is a pure blackish brown color with no light coming through. Head was brownish tan, frothy, and stuck around a while.

S: The beer has a nice, chocolatey malt aroma with hints of roasted coffee and molasses. Solid smelling beer.

T: Chocolate, a hint of milky sweetness and creaminess. Nice roasted character in the finish. Not so many different tasting notes, but what is there is really good. Straightforward, but that's not a bad thing. Does one thing very well.

F: Smooth.

Overall: This was a surprise for me. I wasn't expecting this much flavor from a beer found at the grocery store, but I'm glad I picked this up. A really solid choice for my 700th beer!

Very roasted with coffee, smoke, dark chocolate, nuts, and toffee prominent in taste. Smell is a nutty and heavily roasted espresso. Feel is decently carbonated, creamy and all around medium bodied. Solid porter

Pors deep dark brown witha creamy rich stable head an generous lacing Not much aroma (too cold) some bready malt and black licorive. Flavour surprisingly intense; licorice, coffee, toffee, treacle. Just enough bitterness to balance. Rich in the mouth but not overwhelming.

Poured from a 500ml glass into a Speiglau stout glass.

Pour is a deep dark black with a cafe au lait head.

Aroma is astringent malt with a slight roastiness.

Taste is a lot of roast with a sweet milkiness, body is a little thin.

Very excellent stout.

Delicious and drinkable! This one is a big surprise, but the precise amount of hops to complement the thick malty flavour. Win!
