164/561)  Home:  MacKroken Flower by Le Bilboquet of Quebec:  **1/2;  a strong (10.8%) Scotch ale brewed with wild flower honey;  the nose reminds me of port;  boozy fruit cake notes; dark, rich and flavourful;

This was also purchased at the cheese shop mentioned earlier.  A Bilboquet is a child's toy or game.  This link explains it better than I could.  I am familiar with it, I just didn't know its name, or if it even had one.
