We start with Canadian two row barley, followed by loads of roast barley and oats, a light addition of Pacific Northwest Columbus hops and finish it off with some fresh liquorice root and decadent dark cocoa for a little chocolaty mouth feel. Brewed in small batches (even by our micro brewing standards), the result is a smooth, rich, roasty and always fresh stout sure to cure what ale's ya. This once seasonal favourite is available year round for you thirsty hoards looking to fend off the plague of boring beer.

2022, June. Roasted, a bit smokey malt. Good. Good mouth feel . A good bold stout ! Not a cream or light stout.

Beautiful! Deep brown with thick creamy head. Long lasting retention and great lacing. Aroma picks up very little bitterness and mostly sweet malts, maybe some lactose and a chocolate note as well. This beer is smooth, creamy, and silky. Notes of milk chocolate coat the tongue. Finishes with a slight bitterness. This beer drinks like a Guinness but it's 8.5% ABV so watch out!

Incredibly smooth for a stout beer, a complicated yet silky smooth and thick flavour with a slight hint of a chocolatey aftertaste that's not overbearing.
