According to the label; "Shinnicked" describes the breathless and mildly shocking chill that inspires the bones during a nocturnal dip in a northern lake.
A stout brewed with coffee... Ya don't say.
The label advises that the purpose for this particular blend of barley and beans is to warm up the late night, freshwater lake bathers of Ontario's cottage country. And on that score, mission accomplished. I am inclined to note that the idea of a crackling bonfire on a granite shoreline would be a marvellous accompaniment to this stout.
Strong coffee and stout bitterness combine comfortably without sending you off to bed prematurely. It's nice to think that there's a high quality local stout built with equally locally roasted Muskoka coffee that awaits the cottage-going crowd for at least the near future.
78/100
