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.

16 oz. can. No can dating. Aroma shows sweet roasted malt, bitter dark chocolate, and barley. Taste is pretty nice. Has some bitter chocolate gives it some balance without any hop profile. Ash and some caramel notes. Nicely dry texture. The ABV is mostly hidden here. Body is not entirely as full as I expect but... The flavor is great and that is what counts most.

Tap at a dive bar in the Oregon coast. Black, of coirse. Served too cold. Heacy roast, some coffee and chocolate. Alcohol is noticeable in the flavor and aroma. Medium oalate, a little cocoa powder grit. Solid beer.

Tall can from Elizabeth Station. Canned on 2016-11-22. Pours an almost black with a beige head. Aroma is roasted malt, dark fruits. Taste is oily, roasted malt and hoppy bitterness. Same aftertaste. Quite dry. Good stuff, but I would prefer some sweetness in the taste in order to compensate high bitterness.
