On draft at KOP. Pours a dark rusty brown orange with a small off white head. Aroma of roasted malts, cocoa and baking chocolate. Taste is much the same as the aroma.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
On the ninth day of Christmas, my true love poured for me, a creamy chocolate milkshake stout. The beer pours like thick dark brown murky mud from a swamp with a decent creamy tan head. The sweet, lactose aroma in the nose is complemented with a decent amount of coffee. The flavor is the lactose again as in a normal sweet stout on top of a delicious creamy smooth body. There are also coffee notes in the flavor as well.
