The Duck-Rabbit Milk Stout

Bottle thanks to Dragonstout. Poured a deep brown color with a thin, bubbly tan head that diminished to a ring. Aroma of roast, light chocolate, and a bit of lactose. Lightly sour and biting entry leads into a pleasant roastiness with undertones of chocolate and light vinous notes. Finishes a bit sharp with some more roast on the finish. Not bad, and definitely different than I was anticipating. Thanks to the dirty Dragon for hooking me up.

A rather weak aroma. I have to put my hand over the cup just to capture enough of the molecules that are evaporating. When I do smell the beer it smells pretty good. The beer has a nice roasted sweet malt aroma to it. The beer is nice and black in appearance, but the head is just your average boring white head, but maybe with a sweet stout especially a milk stout this should be the case. The pour was nothing special. The beer could be a bit smoother considering it is a stout. A little on the watered down end. The beer has a nice flavor to it. The roasted malts are everywhere in the taste. There is not really a hop presence anywhere in the beer. I can taste the off milk flavor. I had a better experience with the Left Hand Milk Stout, when it was on tap. It was like drinking a mixture of a stout beer and milk. Overall, this beer has a weak aroma, an average palate, and a nice roasted malt taste. I can say the malt taste is quite good, it dominates the flavor. You don’t try too many beer with this clean of a roasted malt flavor.

Thanks to emacgee for the bottle. Beer was decent, poured a very dark brown with a nice tan head. Aroma was decent, smelled of coffee, choc and nuts. Tasted very creamy, which surprised me. Very smooth and drinkable. Nothing spectacular here, but nothing bad either!

Bottle. Acidic and nutty flavor. Some cocoa and quite musty. Pleasant for the style, but nothing great.

Deep body. Astringent nose. Strong lactose in the mouth. Heavy use of black patent, too much.

black but not opaque with a small dark brown head. roasty aroma with notes of dark chocolate, nuts, wood, and a light vinous character. palate is creamy but also has a fizzy carbonation. flavors are similar to aroma. not my favorite milk stout but it’s still pretty good.

Dark reddish, brown color with a small amount of tan foam. A roasty smell and taste. Medium bodied beer. It is easy to drink, therefore, I had more than one in an evening. I see a duck on the label but where is the rabbit?

Black color with a lasting tan finger sized head. Roasted mocha aroma. Milk chocolate flavor, lot’s of sweetness with just enough sharpness from the roasted grains. Medium bodied and easy to drink. Another damn fine brew from Duck Rabbit.
