| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 29, 2009 Growler from the brewery. Black. Almost no head. Smells right: roast, coffee, and some dates. Lots of black coffee in the flavour, along with the roast and a little caramel sweetness for balance. Nice roast bitterness. Dryish, but also fuller than most dry stouts I’ve tried. An easy drinker. I’d like to try this one on tap. VeloVampire (490), Parkdale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 19, 2009 Cask at Volo - under the name Publican House Stone Wall Stout - came looking pretty much like flat cola, no head at all, slightly transparent at the edges. Nice aroma of burnt coffee, chocolate, with enough sweetish malt and a touch of green hops to keep it all tied together nicely. Big flavour and quite full in the mouth for a lower abv. Bitter chocolate, espresso, raisin, and a faint hit of green apple and yeast. Very good. Quite a nice effort from this young brewery which is very quickly becoming one to watch in the province. Well done. Sammy (4013), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 17, 2009 Cask at Volo. Pours waery black with somke bubbly head, it looks fine. Roasted abrley aroma. Its dry, malt is secondary, not the driest for sure. Medium mouthfeel. It was tapped early, but its fine, and has that unfiltered freh element to it.Good drnkability to it.
