Ashton Brewing Company - Vanilla Stout
Deep, robust and richly rewarding, this is beer to linger over. Distinct notes of chocolate, roasted malt and black barley … and with just enough hop bite to cut the sweetness. Vanilla flavor is subtle, most prevalent in the aroma and imparts a silky palate.
Beau's All Natural Brewing Company - The Tom Green Milk Stout
The Tom Green Beer displays flavours of chocolate and coffee, while delivering a creamy, velvety texture, and finishing with a mild sweetness.
Beyond the Pale Brewing Company - The Darkness
An incredibly dark and creamy beer that will overwhelm the palate with loads of dark chocolate and coffee flavours.
Bicycle Craft Brewery - Abyss Chocolate Stout
A dark, full-bodied, stout with hints of cocoa and chocolate malt. Made with pure organic cocoa, this stout carries subtle hints of hops, and a full, smokey flavour.
Big Rig Brewery & Kitchen - Double Chocolate Milk Stout
With a mocha colored head this bold and beautiful stout has layers of chocolate and roasted coffee like barley that give it a rich flavor that is intensified with the addition of Belgian bitter sweet chocolate.
Broadhead Brewing Company - Dark Horse Stout
A full-bodied, rich and creamy oatmeal stout that bristles with bold, unbridled taste. Blending roasted malt and oatmeal for a solid footing, this smooth, dark beer has shades of bitterness that gives Dark Horse the perfect edge.
Covered Bridge Brewing Company - The Covered Bridge Double-Double
This sweet stout is full-bodied with hints of chocolate and coffee from the dark roasted malts . We don’t stop there – we double up on those flavours by adding chocolate and coffee to it once it’s done fermenting. This is one big beer!
Mill Street Brewery - Cobblestone Stout
We produce a traditional styled Irish Stout that is served using beer gas to produce that familiar creamy pour. Our black stout has a roasted malt flavour and a hint of toasted walnuts and chocolate in the finish. Select imported hops are used to dry out the finish of this ale.
Whitewater Brewing Company – Midnight Stout
Our midnight stout captures the essence of a moonlit paddle with its rich, dark taste balanced with a hoppy bitterness and oatmeal body that furthers the intensity of this bold beer.
