COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This English style of beer, also known as Sweet Stout or Cream Stout, first appeared in London in the late 1800’s. The early brewers touted the health benefits of the milk sugar in this beer which today relates mainly to the increased amount of calories(no real health benefits…sorry). The milk sugar adds a well rounded sweetness to this dark beer and makes it an outstanding, year ‘round stout.

djroehler (151) - Minnesota, USA - MAY 6, 2013
Bottle. Pours black, foamy mocha head. Aroma is coffee, cream, molasses. Taste is bold coffee, rich cream, slight chocolate, molasses. Body is big, smooth. Nitro bottle- same black color, shorter but creamier head. Aroma is identical, and slightly subdued. Taste is identical, but body is smoother, silky, and coats the mouth. Same score for nitro but a 4 on palate.

paulvanpelt (161) - Reusel, NETHERLANDS - MAY 6, 2013
Zeer donkerbruin bier met kleine, blijvende, beige kraag. Aroma van gebrand mout, chocolade. Smaak is gebalanceerd, beetje zoet. Crèmeïg, maar weinig body.

deaconmike (56) - Roswell, USA - MAY 6, 2013
Poured from a nitro bottle. Deep walnut with a 1 finger creamy tan head; some lacing. Aroma is predominately chocolate and roasted malt. The taste is chocolate and malted milk, but not too sweet. Smoothy creamy mouthfeel, but much thinner than expected. Finishes mildly bitter and slightly dry. Overall, enjoyable stout that is sessionable.

Chocolate aroma, nice creamy head. Beautiful dark color with a chocolate and oatmeal flavor. Doesn't wash off the palette too easily. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours black with a nice tan head from the bottle. Aroma is a little different I can’t call it desirable but the taste makes up for it. Bold but smooth, mild chocolate and bitters with a clean finish. Nice beer that I’ll definitely have again

Milk Stout is awesome! Like drinking a cup of iced mocha.... Good iced mocha. Smells of espresso. Pours thick, dark, and with little head. Awesome flavor. Notes of espresso, milk, and cocoa. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Creedence (127) - Cork, IRELAND - APR 29, 2013
355ml bottle in Porterhouse Cork. Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Subtle aromas of creamy milk, coffee and oats. Taste is medium sweetness, light bitterness and light sourness. Milk really comes through on the aftertaste, but the beer is well too lively for a stout. Very fizzy, I thought. Would like to try the nitro version to see if there’s an improvement.

szinck1 (14) - Waltham, Massachusetts, USA - APR 28, 2013
From the bottle. Great pour, black color with with dark brown head. Initial aroma is of chocolate and sweetness. Taste is smooth, creamy chocolate, touch of vanilla; alcohol is 100% disguised. Great body and no bitterness, smooth finish wanting more. Very balanced. Great brew.

Excellent stout. Very dark and creamy with a nice coffee aroma/aftertaste. Definitely worth a buy.
