Lager - Dragon stout - $1.90

Mood: Craving some good sweetness. Aka dragon stout!

Where to Buy: LCBO

Price: $1.90 (=0.10) $2.00

Beer Type: European Lager Beer

Calories: 220 (WHAT!!!??? Holy eff!)

Ingredients: Black malt; corn syrup; caramel malt; and hop extract. Priming sugar used when bottling. (No wonder its sweet!!!)

Country: Jamaica

%: 7.5

ml: 300

Appearance: dark stout colour, with a great white cappuccino head...

Smell: Stout, plus a package of sugar.

Taste: sweet stout. I've had stout once before this (winter beard cranberry chocolate beer) and I wanted to barf. This is like the ice wine of beers. I'm in love. It's like I sucked on a piece of fudge and drank a bit of beer.

Mouthfeel: how I like it, semi carbonated, heavy. Pillowy.

Aftertaste: Stout + sweet. Very pleasant, but heavy. Not really a summer beer.

Overall: this is definitely in its own category, and winning against itself. It's sickeningly sweet just how I like it, but definitely not a beer to drink with any sort of food, except dessert, maybe... Who am I kidding... It's its own dessert!!!

9.5/10 (the last 0.5 is missing because its like 4 million calories.)
