COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Do not be fooled by the mates from the pub, the cow pies are not made in a pastry shop. If you are looking for more sweetness in your life, reach for a stout with a pinch of lactose. The milky and coffee flavors, in this dark beer, will soften even the toughest guys. The Sweet Cow is the first polish beer brewed in genuinely British style, which is milk stout. The name comes from the ingredients used in the process of production. To be more specific, it comes from the milky sugar, which is added at the stage of cooking the wort.
Malts – Pale Ale, Wheat, Vienna, Carapils, Carafa; hops – Challanger, Fuggles; roasted barley; oatmeal; yeast S-04; lactose; water.

KoNrRiI (223) - Århus, DENMARK - APR 14, 2013
0.5 bottle. Small off-white head, mostly black color or more precisely a dark brown. Aroma of coffee with milk complemented by chocolate and toffee. Malty taste with a lot of soothing milky flavors accompanied by loads of caramel. Medium body, slick texture and average carbonation. Finish is coffee-like, medium long, some toffee and caramel too. Pretty good beer, it is unusual though especially with its milkiness.
