A so-called "foreign stout", fuller body and less sweetness than Palliser, more burnt flavour. Opaque black.

[1] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer once. (6/20/2006 5:42:25 PM)
"650ml bomber pours a light-defying black into the mug....2 finger tan frothy cap with good retention and lacing.
Aromas of nuts, figs, burt toast and some wet grass.
Bulky body, phenominal malt spine, thick viscous mouthfeel.
Not overly complex but very rich and flavorful. Big chewy oatmeal and bready tastes up front that mellow and you get the light sweetness with dried fruit, nut, anice tones, the long wet finish gives more fruity and taost flavors as the hop bittering becomes pronounced and mingles with the choclate malts.
A very nice oatmeal stout every bit as good as Sam Smith's
