184)  Home:  Corporal's Bitter Brown Ale by Scotch Irish Brewing of Ontario:  **1/2;  I seem to recall that this was once called Corporal Punishment (the LCBO up to its old tricks again?);  pours brown/borderline amber;  the nose is mocha and caramel;  the taste is strong mocha with hints of caramel finishing with dried fruit;  it's everything I look for in a stout, oddly enough, only in a brown ale;
