Commercial Description:
Mother’s Milk, as the name implies, is a dark and creamy milk stout. Hints of oatmeal, chocolate and of course, milk make Mother’s Milk’s remarkably smooth and silky finish a classic example of the style.

(Bottle) Pours a dark brown body with a medium beige head. Aroma of roastiness, lactose, cocoa, and oatmeal. Flavor of roasted malt, coffee, semi-bitter chocolate, and some caramel with a dry finish.

Very dark brown with a thin film of grayish tan receded from an originally thick and pillowy cream. Some cinnamon and lots of weak coffee, heavy with cream and sugar, in the aroma; wet mulch, some roast, and distant fruits. Flavor is all crisp apple and sarsaparilla, with tepid hints of maple, honey, and foliage. Weird, weak citrus, pears, and iron water in a doughy, oily mid palate. Some mild tartness. Palate is crisp and quiet; medium bodied and sharply carbonated. Lots of ashy roast and mild astringency in the fairly long and wet finish. Lots of good qualities, but no conversion. Thanks Chris!

Black pour with a lasting tan head. Slightly transluscent. Smell is light coffee with definitely milky creaminess, but not heavily. Hint of cardboard in the nose. Taste is mild roastiness with some creaminess and a finish of metal and cardboard. Some off flavors keep it from being better, but I thought it was still pretty decent and drinkable. Thanks Dave!

Draft. A slightly better than average sweet stout. Midnight black, with a creamy, foamy top. Standard roasted malts, chocolate/coffee flavors. Tasty.

From bottle, Thanks to TopherDrinks : Pours a very dark black, with a soft brown half finger head. Nose of big time roasted malts, chocolate, some smokyness. Taste is much the same, except im not picking up the smokyness in the flavor though. Pretty full bodied, nice smooth feel on the palate, and pleasent aftertaste of roasted chocolate. I like it.

Appearance: Pours a dark brown body with a small, creamy-looking head. Smell: Roasted malts with a faint whiff of smoke. Notes of oatmeal, chocolate milk, and crushed malted milk balls. Taste: Roasted maltiness with flavors of dark chocolate and chocolate milk. Hint of vanilla and oats. Light roasty bitterness to curb a bit of the sweetness. Chocolate malt drink finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Creamy mouthfeel. Drinkability: A pleasant, satisfying milk stout experience.

Pours black, rustic milky chocolate aroma. Nice earthy taste coupled with mild roasted dark chocolate and malted coffee. Very drinkable and enjoyable beer.
