Brown sugar, grainy malt. Light hops and an odd burnt toast aroma. Flavor is pretty bland other than some light roast and more burnt toast. A pretty poor offering.

Smells a little like coffee, roast malts. Pors brown with coke-coloured head. Hpretty boring overall, a little sour at end. A little bitter.

So Hockley thought that since their stout and lager sucked, maybe putting them together might make a decent beer? Ha! Has a solid beige head and dark burgundy body. Soft aroma of caramel and burnt barley. Flavour is like an amber, a dark lager with lots of malt it seems and a wet mouthfeel. It doesnβt totally suck, in fact, which is an improvement over the stout!

Single can from the LCBO. Pours a dark brown colour with red highlights. Its head is beige, creamy, full, has average retention and no lacing. Nice mild aroma of their stout that gets a bit stronger as it breathes. Molasses, coffee and some light toffee. Same found in the taste, but quite light. A nice addition for this brewery, geared towards those that are afraid of the real dark and strong tasting stout. Kind of a watery stout.
