25/1006) Caffe Volo:  Scrimshaw Oyster Stout by Barley Days Brewery of Ontario:  **; on cask;  mild mocha nose;  sweet mocha flavours;  soft mouth feel;  a bit subdued;  the cool thing is, it really is made with oysters

26/1007)  Caffe Volo:  Pitchfork Porter by Oast House Brewers of Ontario:  *1/2;  5.3%; robust English Porter;  there is a bit of a tangyness to this one;  muted coffee flavours; overall it's just a tad bland
