I tend to think of the stonewall as a wintertime drink, but for no other reason than that was the first time I had it. It was in an 1820s tavern (no electric lights, wait staff in period costume, period food and drink without all the pesky disentery) at Greenfield Village in Detroit. A rainy November day, and we were the only ones in the place. Burned a jones for that ancient drink right into my brain. Try it sometime with the authentic ingredients - it really tastes like something your great great great grand alcoholic woulda liked...
