Very average tasting stout. Pours completely black. The beer appeared to be incredibly carbonated, and was also somewhat thin.

473ml can served cold into a tulip. LCBO purchase for about $3.75 Cdn.
Appearance - virtually black with big two fingers of tan head. Good staying power and son lacing clings to the run of the glass.
Smell- some roasty notes, hints of dark chocolate. Middling intensity, nothing unpleasant.
Taste- lots or roasted malt, some bitter dark chocolate and trace amount of coffee. Finishes with a slight bit of sweetness.
Mouthfeel- medium bodied slightly dry chalky finish. Moderate carbonation and drinks pretty well.
Overall- good solid stout that’s a half notch below the best of the best of local stouts. Good flavour and aromas worth a purchase to try.

Pours black in colour with a thick and dense beige head. The smell is a bit smokey and a bit chocolatey. The taste is a muted cocoa, no coffee notes, just like I like ‘em. Malty backbone, with a bit of sweetness up front. Smooth going down the hatch

473 mL can from Cameron's latest mixed three-pack, currently available at the LCBO. Coded Nov 11 2020 and served at cellar temperature.
Pours a deep mahogany-black colour with crimson red highlights; one finger of foamy, light tan-coloured head gathers atop and then dissipates within the next several minutes. A messy band of sticky lacing is strewn about in the process, which eventually leaves behind a creamy-looking collar of froth. It smells of cocoa, toasted wheat and caramelized malts, with hints of roasted grains, dark chocolate, and a faint touch of coffee.
I'm tasting roasted grains, burnt bread and cocoa right off the bat, with toffee and molasses sweetness coming through shortly thereafter. It finishes bittersweet, with hints of coffee grounds, milk and dark chocolate, leading into a mildly ashy, earthy aftertaste that wraps up the profile nicely enough. Hints of metallicity. An ordinary stout overall, but it's decently brewed with no serious flaws flavour-wise. Light in body, with low carbonation that weakly nudges the tongue - feels smooth, but also decidedly thin for a stout. Drinkability is fine - I could've had another afterwards with no fuss.
Final Grade: 3.69, a B grade. Cameron's Crooked Nose isn't the most exciting stout I've ever had, but if you're looking for one that's straightforward and sessionable then this might be worth trying on for size. It does seem a bit thin... which is not necessarily a major issue given its 'standard strength' abv, but at the end of the day I do prefer a little more body out of this kind of beer. I'd say the sampler pack is worth a grab, particularly if you haven't already tried their (also-included) Cruising Through The Galaxy, which is a fine hazy IPA, indeed.
