6/2227) Home:  30th Anniversary Bourbon Barrel Aged Russian Imperial Stout by Great Lakes Brewery of Ontario:  **1/2;  11.9%, 60 ibu;  listed as 30th Anniversary Ale at the LCBO;  brewed with cold brew coffee, vanilla beans and cocoa;  coffee and alcohol nose;  sweet vanilla and bourbon notes play off nicely against the coffee;  very warming alcohol especially at the finish;


7/2228) Home:  Pecan Pie Porter by Double Trouble Brewing of Ontario:  **;  5.6%;  brewed at Wellington for Double Trouble;  brewed with natural pecan flavours;  sweet, sugary pecan nose;  tastes a lot like a Turtles chocolate but then the sweetness arrives and I am reminded of pecan tarts;  unusual enough that I do want to try it again;
