Big Rock Espresso Stout and Winter Spice Ale

For those of you living in Alberta making the big bucks; tuck a little aside for two re-introduced Big Rock brews, as the brewery based out of Calgary has announced its plans for McNally's Winter Spice Ale and their Espresso Stout.

The McNally's Winter Spice will be available as a gift set that includes four bottles of beer, two beer glasses and some ginger cookies from Cookie Occasion (a Calgary based company).
*Brewed with both pale and caramel malts it gives off a warm amber glow and, upon first sip, the depth of flavour is revealed: notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and a hint of ginger. This seasonal brew has an alcohol content of 6% and is sure to warm your heart –and cheeks!

The Espresso Stout is also back for its third year backed by popular demand. It will be available for purchase in 6 packs at select outlets. Not so great ratebeer reviews.

Big Rock products are sold in eight provinces and three territories in Canada and, oddly enough, they are also available in Korea. For more information on Big Rock Brewery visit bigrockbeer.com.
