Keegan Ales Mothers Milk Stout

Pours black with hints of red coming through with the light. Average size darker tan creamy head that left some nice lacing. Aroma of coffee grinds, cocoa, roasted malts, some vanilla. Was starting to pick up some coffee with cream and light sugar as this warmed. Flavor was more of the roasted malts, the coffee grinds, dark chocolate and lactose.

Light aroma to this stout, a touch of chocolate. Thin mouth feel and a slight coffee bitterness. Nothing great.

Any first impressions?
-A sheet of head recedes to a ring around opaque darkness.
-Vanilla-tinged maltiness is covered in timid roastiness; nothing really attracts, but this spells well-crafted.
-Dark chocolate and vanilla sweetness are deepened by cheerful cherry undertones.
-An appropriate CO2 dosage leaves full view of the very well malted, suave mouthfeel.

What if you dig deeper?
-Dark fruit and molasses unite to dominate the finish, yielding only a smidge of roastiness.
-The nourishing mouthfeel is definitely my favorite feature here.
-The malt’s sweetness builds in the aroma upon warming.
-This is a competent sweet stout, no doubt very fine for sessions.

Looks amazing. Pours a dark blackish color with a brown head. Tastes amazing as well... creamy, chocolatey, coffeeish, but tart and fruity almost.... just damn good.

Black, maybe a bit of red on the edges, and a dense brown head. Creamy, chocolatey aroma. Surprisngly tart at first, almost winey or fruity, then a smooth coffee-ish, dark chocolatey finish. Thanks to Springslicker for this one!

Pours nearly black with a creamy tan head. Smells like oats, chocolate, milk, caramel and coffee. Sweet and complex flavors a candy taste on top of the coffee. Very smooth palate with espresso and chocolate. A damn good stout.
