WHITBY, ON – Following on last weekend’s release of the ultra-limited The Mistress Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout, Whitby’s 5 Paddles Brewing has announced the release of a second one-off seasonal stout, this one arriving just in time for Valentine’s Day gift giving.
Chocolate Covered Strawberry Stout is a richly flavoured stout brewed with cacao nibs from ChocoSol Traders and fermented with local strawberries from MacMillan’s Orchards.
Chocolate Covered Strawberry Stout is available now in 650 ml bottles at the 5 Paddles retail store while supplies last.

- Greg C. is drinking a When In Rome by Bar Hop at Bar Hop BrewcoFruit-flavoured stouts aren’t usually my kinda thing, but this is a good one. Berry flavours are very natural & work well with the beer.
- Greg C. is drinking a Steadfast by Tooth And Nail Brewing Company at Bar Hop BrewcoTicks all the boxes - dry roast malt, cocoa, hints of coffee & toasted nuts, bit of twiggy bitterness. A spot-on porter!
- Greg C. is drinking a Dubbel Entendre by Black Oak Brewing Company at King & Dufferin5.5 year old bottle. Noticeably oxidized but still enjoyable. Notes of dried fruit, baked apple, coffee, rye bread & dark malt. Warm finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Kindred Spirits by Innis & Gunn at King & DufferinSimple & solid robust stout with nicely integrated whisky & wood notes. Sweet but not overly so. Pretty well balanced, actually. Well done.
- Greg C. is drinking a Petrus Winter #9 by Brouwerij De Brabandere at King & Dufferin3 year old bottle. Notes of caramel toffee and autumn/winter spices. Oxidization and fairly light carbonation belie its age. But still good.
