Left Hand Milk Stout

Brewed by Left Hand Brewing Co.
Style: Sweet Stout
Longmont, Colorado USA

I’m stuffed. I just made a pizza, ate most of it (my wife ate two pieces), and now I’m sitting on the couch, grabbing my belly, and going: OOOOOOOOOH. I’m full. So I open the Left Hand I bought today. A couple six packs in the back of the grocery. The first shipment in this city and it’s not even on the shelves. It has the milk stout taste that Duck Rabbit has, only not as pronounced. Little bits of sweetness mixed in with the stout. Nice. It can make it through this belly...it can...

This was a really good stout. Very thick in body and one I would definitely recommend.

On Tap, Very dark pour. Decent amount of hops good sweet milky taste. I would definitely buy this one again

Tap. Dark mohagany color, no head. Roastiness coffe vanilla aroma. Creamy mouth som hops, milky and sugary flavor. Missing something, nothing special but drinkable.

Bottle. Dark brown/mahogany, diminishing beige head. Smooth, rich coffee flavor; sweet with some offsetting roastiness. Creamy mouth feel. Cafe au lait? If Starbucks sold beer, this would be it.

12 oz bottle. Pours a nearly opaque dark brown with 2 cm of foamy tan head that is mostly diminishing. Aroma is sweet malt and smoke. Initial flavor is is chocolate and cream. Flavor ends more malty. After taste lingers for a short time. Light lacing, next to no carbonation, light to medium body, and alcohol didn’t really make its presence known. Very drinkable beer that pretty much follows what I expected.

Enough burnt malt to perfectly balance the lactose sweetness. Draught at Circa 4/3/08.

poured a beautiful black with a huge head. Aromas of malt and coffee. Taste of milk chocolate, malt, coffee, and milk. Outstanding effort from th is brewery.
