73/2673) Louis Cifer, Toronto:  Belialed Bourbon by Louis Cifer Brew Works of Ontario:  **; 8%, 50 ibu; Imperial Stout with bourbon and oak; bourbon and dark coffee nose; bourbon edge with notes of vanilla and mild oakiness;

74/2674) Louis Cifer, Toronto:  Gothic American Brown Ale by Louis Cifer Brew Works of Ontario:  *1/2; 5.8%, 36 ibu; brewed with citra hops; bitter edge to the nose; roasty flavours; the dry finish reminds me of a black IPA;  a fine brown ale but the Citra hops feel out of place;
