Potato Stout - Black creek - $5.00

Mood: getting ready for brunch, who ever heard of potato stout? Cool! 

Where to Buy: LCBO Square One

Price: $5.00ish

Beer Type: stout

Ingredients: water, barley, potatoes, hops, yeast

Country: Canada (Toronto, on)

%: 5%

ml: 500ml

Appearance: Dark Amber

Smell: subtle unsalted potato chip and light beer

Taste: light for a stout, still has a stout flavour but not as intense of an aftertaste. 

Mouthfeel: turns creamy in mouth, bubbles remain, harsh on the tongue (burning) but no real bitterness. 

Finished: light, very light, slight potato stout? But I notice my tounge is burning. Like black pepper without the pepper. Almost a minute later don't taste anything but slight potato beer (like non existent) and burn. 

Overall: I am used to stouts being bitter and strong. This was surprisingly light for a stout and no real aftertaste, likes e slight potato taste! Only issue is the stinging feeling afterwards, a little intense. Will try if people are wondering what potato beer is, worth it.
