Stout is a Porter gone mad. In fact the style was known as "Stout Porter" well into the 19th century. Using extra-darkly roasted grains means chocolate and coffee flavours are more intense, and the sweetness that one finds in Porter is lacking.

Pours a dark brown colour with little ruby highlights. The head is light beige coloured, frothy, creamy, has good retention and thick foamy lacing. Aromas of coffee and dark fruits (raisins, plums) at first. Medium-light bodied with a slight creamy feel. Taste of roasted malt with notes of coffee, smoke, and some light infection with a sourness that should not be there. Other than that, a nice smooth stout with good drinkability (for those who do not like theirs too heavy).

Poured dark brown with a medium tan head that very quickly disappeared to a thin layer. Leaves a small amount of lacing. Aroma is of roasted malts and wet grass. Flavour is much improved over the aroma. Roasted grain, unsweetened chocolate and coffee. Dry finish. Medium body, creamy with moderate carbonation.

The beer poured an almost coca-cola dark brown with a thin brown ring. The aroma was smoked wood, roasted malt, and coffee. The mouthfeel was a bit on the thin side and highly carbonated. The flavour was dark chocolate, coffee, and a hint of cream -

500ml bottle. Pours a deep dark chestnut colored ale in the glass. Smallish off white cap reduced quickly to a surface lace and laces the glass well enough. Medium carbonation. Aroma has a lot of roast coffee in it some grassy hop notes and that’s about it. Flavor follows aroma: nice roasty coffee discernment balanced well with some decent brewers gold hop bittering. Finish is fairly fast. Clean and moderately roasty-bitter. Clean no aftertaste. Avery serviceable pub stout. Can’t really say if they got a handle on the historic pioneer Canadian pub stouts which were fashioned after the Burton stouts but with all that specialty roasted grain and coffee tastes I somehow doubt the link to Pioneer brews. Still a pleasant uncomplicated two dimensional stout.
