COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The key to a sessionable beer is the way it evolves over time well spent. Here we took an extremely dark malt bill and smashed it against the sweetness of milk, then we wafted black currant notes of Bullion hops through the middle. Nuanced to keep it an I ferreting part of a gathering while neither dominating not being inconsiquential to banter. Drink Carton of Milk because it does a session good.

Uploading old reviews that were missing comments. A decent milk stout but not as sweet as I'd like. Hoping to retry this one because I think it may have been a little off. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

I am not a fan of the style so this one appeals to me because the lactose quality is minimal and comes out slightly in the finish while the barley roasted quality of this beer reigns. My kind of stout. On draft at Freebridge. It was great meeting you guys.

On tap at The Pony Bar-HK. Pours dark brown with small light tan head. Aromas of roasted malt and chocolate. Flavor is much the same with lots of roast and chocolate. Body is a little thin, but then again this is a pretty low abv stout. Nice sessionable stout.

Draft. Pours deep brown with a thin beige head. Roasted grains, chocolate sweetness, toast, and light malty sweetness. Not bad.

on tap at bierkraft - tasty, sessionable stout. Smooth bodied and creamy with roasted malts, plenty of chocolate and a hint of molasses. Not quite a sweet as a milk stout should be, but still quite tasty.

When compared with the Boat Beer, which is an excellent session beer, I felt that this one was way too thin. Mild coffee and roasty notes on the nose, thin mouthfeel, light watery coffee taste with only a very modest lactic tang. Okay...

PhillyCraft (1962) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 13, 2012
Sample at the Pour House, pours a hazy dark dark brown with huge beige head and soapy lace that didn’t last. Aromas of faint malt, smoke, and roast but not really that recognizable. Taste is roasty but slightly sour, notes of tofee, tobacco, hops, caramel, smoked nuts, caramel, and bread. Light bodied and piss warm off that hand pump. Aftertaste is like an old school mollases pop from shrivers. Body was too light, aromas was non-exisitant.

On tap at The Gate for their Carton event. Pours a deep black with a thin tan head. Soft cocoa, big roast, chocolate and toast. Lots of roast, milk, cocoa. Smooth and roasty, Long cocoa, smooth and tasty.
