First Impression
Mill Street is the home of some of Canada's finest craft beers. The can virtually cries "Stout!" from the chilly depths of the fridge. Okay an uncommon moment of honesty here for me... Opening the can, the nitrogen load scared the hell out of me. When pouring this, treat it as a you might a Boddington's - or dare I say a Guinness?

First Sip
Lovely. Simply stoutish loveliness. A little roasty and nicely malty and soundly bitter.

Halfway
Regretting deeply that there was only one of these treasures in my fridge.

Bottoms Up
If Guinness is the standard bearer for stout this upstart "Cobblestone" is doing the old man proud. The head is very much like that of the revered "Black Stuff". As the next generation at times builds properly and productively on the advances of the last, "Cobblestone" pays an honest and loving tribute to great stout. Well done. Indeed, very well done.
