Sly Fox Reilly Stout at Gleason's in Peekskill, NY

Nice looking head, and color, but thin grool.  Its a very good looking stout, almost a cartoon stout, like-- "Look, I have a stout!", with low in ABV, if you're trying to keep it lite.  

But basically an epic Meh: it's aroma is sour, the bad kind, and an almost comically watery mouth feel, with a list of flavors it lacks that may be longer than the list of good names for a beer.  Not sure.  Could be cream corned, but not worth further study either.  I don't think it's the taps or drafting process. 

Just not a stout to write ... anything about.  No need to get mean about it-- back to the white board fellas. 

You know, Duncan Donuts will pitch a full batch of coffee and make a new batch when it's not fresh and right.
