Flavor/Palate : Light bodied almost watery. Soapy soft feel with hint of roast. Light creamy texture. Where is the flavor and body. This might be the thinnest washed up dark ale I had in a while.

Picked this up at the LCBO, it says dark ale on the can, not stout, which is alot closer to what this is, because it certainly is not a stout. Pours a dark dark brown with a thin off white, sticky head. The aroma has weak game, roasted malts, cocoa puffs, and a sour note. The flavour has weak game, mainly just a malty watery mess, with a sour finish. Weak

On tap at Riverside RA Centre, Ottawa. Pours a black body with brownish glints and an average beige foamy head. Fair malty/hoppy aroma with light roasted cereals hints. Taste is rather thin and lacks complexity. It leaves a short bitter/roasty aftertaste. Looks and tastes like a boring dark lager. Useless.

Tap. Deep dark brown, with a light tan head. Nose was plain, not much there, some cocoa, burnt coffee. Palate is smooth, low carb. Flavours are similar and weaker than the nose, not a fan.

Tap@Red Stag Tavern, Alexander Keiths Tap Room, Halifax. Black beer with a strong head. The aroma is lightly roasted and lightly smokey. The flavour is gently bitter. Overall a very average stout.

On ta at the Moose something near the Rogers Centre. Dark brown oily watery pour, a bit of head. Scents of roasty malts, carmel and toffee. Flavors are bland and watery, carmel and rosty malts dominate, bad finish. At least it was better than the IPA.

Stout!? really? This was watery, and thin with the faintest flavor of roasted malt. This is more like a watered down dark ale, with next to no flavor profile, or aroma. PASS!

On tap: Tapped a dark brown small cap, weak lacing. Aroma of roasted grains and sweetness. Weak mouth feel...thin...sweet, far too sweet in an adjunct sweetness bad way...roastyness and coffee tastes are there but the weak body and mouth feel combined with the saccharine sweetness fouled this drink for me.
