The Duck-Rabbit Milk Stout

Brewed by The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery
Style: Sweet Stout
Farmville, North Carolina USA

12oz. Bottle: Aroma of coffee, bitter coffee, lactose, sugar, roasted malts and slight chocolate. Poured brown/very deep amber in color with no head at all. Clear. Slightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet and lightly bitter. Tastes of chocolate, malts, sugar, lactose, light coffee, and some toffee. Medium body. Thin, slightly chalky texture. Soft carbonation. Sweet, lactose, chocolate, malt, and slight coffee finish is slightly chalky.

Pours a pitch black with thin off-white head. Aroma of coffee, vanilla, roasted malt, and cream. Flavor is quite interesting, but finishes with an acidic taste that just isn’t my style.

12oz bottle from total wine in greenville. pours a thin, very dark brown, with a whispy light tan head. aroma is very nice with aromas of roast coffee, vanilla coffee-mate, cinnamon, and roasted nuts. flavor was a delicious and a pleasant surprise with big roasted coffee and cream with subtle notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and oatmeal. mouthfeel was very smooth, slightly thin for a stout, with low carbonation and a bitter coffee finish with a hint of lactose sugar sweetness. overall, a very enjoyable sweet stout.

Pours dark with a thick tan head, decent flavor, but the scent of coffee lingers with every sip. As far as milk stouts go this ones is my lower half of my list.

Poured brown with a white head. Aroma of chocolate. Light thin body. Like milk. Some chocolate and coffee. Slugable.

pours black with light mocha head. Aroma roasted malts, light lactose nose and thin chocolate touch with some hops. Taste, malty, coffee, roasted malts and light lactose as well as possible dark fruits. A fine sweet stout, up there with Left Hand’s Milk stout.

(trade with Suttree). Aroma is most definately on the malty side. Perhaps even a little phenolic. Pours smallish head which collapses into the glass fairly quickly. Nice sweet stout with a ever so slight sourness at the end. Average thickness in body. Haven’t had a true milk stout in a long time!

bottle, Middleton Plantation Estate restaurant. dark brown almost blackish body, tall dark tan rocky head. aroma is dark roasted malt, beef jerkey, some lactose and baking chocolate. flavor is like the aroma, roasted oaty malt, smoked meat, and milk lactose. decent balance.
