About
THE CABIN STORY
Since we were children, we’ve yearned for our own special place.

A cardboard box fort; a cubby under the stairs; a flashlight under the covers. As we grew up, we slept in tents under trees. We bought campers and took road trips. We rented cabins in faraway places and gathered with friends. We made memories.

The humble cabin represents the ultimate escape. A home away from home. A respite from the stresses of work and the regularity of everyday life. A place to be yourself.

Cabin Brewing Company embodies that feeling. It is a place to make new memories. It is your new special place.

Relax. Take a deep breath. Drink great beer.

500mL bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Nose is dominated by the nutmeg upfront, offset a bit by the lactose, with the cinnamon further back. Flavour is very sweet, with intense lactose, with all the spices in the background all jumbled and chaotic. This was a bad idea on paper, and the execution is not convincing me. Not good.

355mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has plenty of roasted malt, some wood, and earthy hops in good balance. Flavour has a good malt base, with moderate roast, some woodiness, and some earthy hops underneath. Well-balanced, assertive, good malt base. Very nicely done.

Bottle pour at Barrel Fest 2025. Pours murky brown with a beige head. Tons of roasted malts and bourbon on the nose. Flavour has nice bourbon character, decent roasty porter base. Very nice.

Bottle pour at Barrel Fest 2025. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Lots of chilis, bourbon, and chocolate on the nose. Flavour has tons of chocolate and chilis, a lot of chili hitting the back of the throat. The cognac comes through stronger as it warms. I think the chilies are a bit much, but it does come together well.

Dark amber. The aroma is full of nutmeg, and vanilla, and it's light that in the palate, too. Quite sweet, so much nutmeg. The base beer is kind of getting crushed here, but was it good? To me, the base isn't enough to carry the sweetness.

Ok, so the appearance is lacking in darkness. There's some reddish-brown stuff, thin head. There's a bit of toastiness, though it smells like it'll be too thin. Okay body, some coffee, maybe caramel on it. It doesn't come across like an imperial stout to me, a more general strong ale. There's some alcohol in the finish, and there's also a bit of nuttiness.

500mL bottle. Pours black with a beige head. Nutmeg, vanilla, and bourbon barrels on the nose. Flavour has a ton of nutmeg, some notes of vanilla, lactose, excess sugars, and maybe some dry bourbon barrels floating along. Not good.

355mL can. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Bready malts and brown sugar on the nose. Flavour has brown bread malts, some crusts. Nice hoppy bit and a full body. Nicely constructed imperial stout.

473mL can, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Nose is dry, with toasted nuts, dry cocoa, and some earthy bready malt. Flavour is very malty, being sweeter than expected, with toffee, caramel, cocoa, toasted malt, and a touch of toasted nuts. Finishes lightly sweet, bready and caramely. Solid.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg Apr 21, 2025). Clear gold with full white head. Light pine and citrus hops with soft biscuit malt. Decent.
