Commercial Description:
A dark beer can be a very scary thought to some people. Surprise, surprise. There's no other beer quite like Waterloo Dark, refreshingly light and delicate in taste but rich in colour. Don't be afraid of the dark. surprise yourself.

Deep dark coloured body with a mild ruby tint and a very thin tan head. Aroma of mild malt, cardboard, yeast and a little bit of sugar. Light-bodied; Strong cardboard and sugar flavours with not much else but funky malt and water. Aftertaste shows just about nothing, perhaps cardboard and some sugars. Overall, a pretty bad beer - I don’t see much premium about this, but it was nice to at least try it. I sampled this 473 mL can purchased from the LCBO (Summerhill) in Toronto, Ontario on 11-October-2009 sampled from home in Washington on 06-November-2009.

Bottle at Imperial Pub in Toronto. Pours a nice reddish brown, not much head. Nearly opaque when held to the light - impressive looking. Very sweet taste, sorta fruity - plums, raisins. Pretty thin, I was hoping for some creamy texture and malty flavors...and didn’t find either of them. Meh....looks a lot better than it tastes.

Took a while to find this on Ratebeer. It was an impulse buy at a lousy beer store in Canada. The aroma is strange, sweet, malty, earthy, tangy. The appearance is attractive, dark red/brown, dissipating white head. The flavor is malty, caramel, bread, toasted malts. The finish is slightly bitter and dry. Thin/medium mouthfeel. Not terrible.

What’s this all about? It started well, with a rich, dark amber colour but it all went downhill from there. Head was conspicuous by its abesence, and there was a very faint aroma of perhaps some malt. Taste was slightly malt, but not much else. Mouthfeel was seriously thin, and no aftertaste to speak of. This cannot be my either my last review of 2006 nor my first of 2007. Gotta do better than this!

473 mL Can. Deep copper body with a small fizzy tan head. Aroma of grains and caramel with a hint of crystal malt. Flavors of sweet malt, crystal malt, and toasted malt with caramel in the aftertaste and a mild sweet finish. Refreshingly light for a dark.
