More like an alt than a stout. Light chocolate tasted. Smooth finish characterized by a light hop presence. barleyPops (1081), Quad-Cities, Illinois, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 27, 2006 This beer came from an impromptu Madison trip. It pours a dark dark brown but is still thin enough to be seen as a mahogany in an off light.
The smell is coffee roast, subtle sweet malts, and a heavy bread.
The taste is all milk and roast. It leaves you creamy and malty but with that slightly bittering milk aftertaste, which serves only to make you want to drink more. It finishes clean but with a hint of bitter. A damn fine beer! Too bad I have to go to frickin Madison to get it. YourDarkLord (1800), Urbana, Illinois, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 20, 2006 Lake Louie has always come through. It does again with this fine milk stout. This stout pours a deep, dark brown with a small, tan head. Initial aroma is of café mocha followed by malt powder, vanilla bean, and a wisp of smoke. Creamy mouthfeel, low carbonation, medium body. The flavor repeats the aromas. Finishes slightly sweet and roasted. Very nice milk stout. Ughsmash (4042), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 19, 2006 12 oz bottle. Poured a deep cranberry/brown with a short cap of creamy beige head. Nose was quite sweet with lightly roasted milk chocolate, lactose sugars, and the faintest hint of vanilla. Surprisingly, a mild hoppy bitterness provides the first flavor impression... this is followed by deeply-roasted milk chocolate, roasted barley, and more dark malty sweetness. Body was rather light, but never watery. Finish was a tad dry, with flavors of roasted chocolate and some woodiness. Very fine stout. Dickinsonbeer (3494), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 4, 2006 12 oz bottle! Shared with the PA crew. Thanks to Hopdog for sharing this rare beer from a brewery I had never even heard of. Pours black/deep brown with amber highlights, and a nice beige thin head. Aroma has the traditional sweet lactose aroma with a good dry roasted barley nose. Nice dry and light flavor but still a good amount of roast and chocolate. Modereately sweet all the way through and a nice smooth finish. Pretty good overall. LtJudge (432), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA
