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.

Brown ale with a nice fruity(raisins) and chocolaty nose, almost vinous. Thats where the pleasure stops. Very sweet malts and little hops make this a uninspired beer in the mouth. Very thin also. Note that this was tasted in a blind tasting.

Dark brown/red with a creamy tan head. Aroma of roasted malt. Sweet. Kind of like a thin porter. Very light mouth feel. Sour and tart with notes of roastiness and smoke, some burnt sugar. Late malts. Where are the hops? Not too bad from Brick.

Pours a reddish black with next to no head. Scents include metalic malts and roasted caramel. Initial sip was very watery. Very little carbonation. No metalic taste but roasted malts were present. Slightly nutty flavour too. Besides the roasted flavour the palate was almost non-existant. This one was out of a bottle, I've had it on tap and was much better.

Very light tasting dark beer. Smooth with a slight malt aftertaste. The dark beer for the masses?

Surprisingly light tasting for a dark beer. Hint of sweetness, light malt flavour. I quite enjoyed this. (And it now comes in "stubbies.")

Deep ruby color, head went away quickly. Some roasted malt in the aroma but it was faint. Lighter malt flavor. Light to medium bodied. Not bad but could use a bit more flavor/aroma.

Decent tan head but does not last long and little carbonation. Aroma has gone on vacation. It was there initially but quickly left for the Bahamas. Some roasted malt is all I can remember. Color is a very nice port red. Flavor is a little weak and bland. More malts with a little bit of chocolate. Not much else. Finish is a little sticky and unimpressive. Not a bad beer just bland and unimpressive.

Very dark ruby with no head, but lots of initial carbonation. Chocolate and smoky aroma. Vinous with flavours of vanilla and almond. Slightly prickly mouthfeel with a full body and a dry finish.
