Hockley Stout

Hockley Stout

Hockley Valley Brewing Co., Orangeville, Ontario, Canada - Stout
Friday 9 March 2012 – 4.2%Alc./Vol.    72 / 100

Initial Thoughts
Another Hockley Valley product. Nice traditional looking can... But no awards... “Pours like liquid midnight” though... They aren’t kidding! A full pint yields no light. Black liquid...
First Sip
The darkness of this beer is incredible to witness. Around the edge of the glass it appears clear, brown, but a full pint doesn’t give a glint of light at all! Nice easy to enjoy “Traditional Irish Stout” taste. 
Halfway Through
A little bit of sweetness, a tad hoppy but nothing crazy at all. Just a little bite to it, almost a caffeinated type thing going on...
Bottoms Up
This is by no means a bad stout. It very well could be a popular example among stout enthusiasts. For me though, it left me perhaps a little uninspired...
