Charlevoix Vache Folle Milk Stout 5%

Thanks for sharing moejuck. Pours a deep black, with tan dissipating head that leaves a thick ring around the inner edge of the glass. Aroma of malted chocolate, alcohol and scalded milk. Tastes strongly of rich roasted chocolate malts and perhaps a touch of caramel. Stronger hop finish than I expected.

Bottle sampled on 2/13/07: Pours a mostly opaque with dark brown edges and a creamy, well-lacing tan head. Aroma of dark earthy caramel and milk chocolate with some roasty notes. Body starts with a light milky sweetness and a touch of caramel toward a smoother, lightly bitter finish. A decent milk stout.

Black body topped by a medium tan head. Aroma of milk chocolate and cacao. As the name indicates this one is rather lactic. Milk chocolate dominates the black coffee and roasted coffee beans flavours. Creamy body with a very active carbonation. Surprising leafy hops although there was no discernable bitterness. My notes date back a few months. Ratebeer indicates the beer has been removed from the market. A Mad Cow scandal again?

Poured a very dark brown color with a dark tan head. Very roasty aroma with chocolate and some ash. The flavor was tart and roasted. Light to medium body with a bitter finish.
