Mighty, bold, and black as night, our house stout has gained a reputation for being contagious among the locals. This is no dry Irish anything, rather a strapping American Double Stout with a sweet undertow and addictive hint of roasty goodness. The name honors this brewer’s affinity with literary arachnids – specifically Charlotte A. Cavatica, the eight-legged character from E.B. Whites’ Charlotte’s Web. Be forewarned, this beer will stain your clothes.

On tap at McKay's. Pours nearly black with a beige head. Bread crusts and dry sugars on the nose. Flavour has dry old sugars, crusts. Maybe I'm drunk, but this tastes like any old stout.

From tap at BeerTemple. Amsterdam. Aroma is dark malt, coffee, bit creamy, cocoa, roast, and some dark chocolate. Moderate sweet and medium bitter flavour. Body is above medium. Not the world’s heaviest Stout, but definitely enjoyable. --- Rerate: Can from a supermarket in Oregon. Much better than the draft. Getting some nice fruity hops now as well with notes of citrus and pine. Nice well-rounded hopped roasty chocolate Stout.
