Handwritten notes: This is a pure malt Canadian craft entry with an under-taste of coffee and chocolate. It drinks smooth like a draft. But being completely unoffensive is perhaps its greatest flaw. The flavours are all there, but they just sit in the corner like a wallflower waiting for a boy to ask them to dance. I was once in a bowling team called the Alley Cats. No, that's a lie. It was just my brother, Big Fellah, and me. But we really wanted to be a bowling team called the Alley Cats. Too bad none of us could bowl really well or keep our concentration after two or three pitchers of Molson.
