Commercial Description:
This English style of beer, also known as Sweet Stout or Cream Stout, first appeared in London in the late 1800’s. The early brewers touted the health benefits of the milk sugar in this beer which today relates mainly to the increased amount of calories(no real health benefits…sorry). The milk sugar adds a well rounded sweetness to this dark beer and makes it an outstanding, year ‘round stout.

A dark pour, nice aroma. Taste was not as thick as other stouts nor as heavy. Light and smooth, it lacked the molasses tones of other stouts. I didn’t catch the "sweetness" so much as I felt it lacked the depth I like. A nice, easy drink, but not my favorite.

Aroma of liquorice, raisin, coffee, chocolate and malt. The flavor is sweet with hints of raisin, malt and liquorice. It’s a really nice and price-worthy stout.

Bottle. I was apprehensive about this because of the name. (I don’t drink milk) Pours near-black with a brown head. Aroma is too creamy at first, then settles down into a delicious coffee-chocolate-cream mix. Flavor is creamy chocolate with a slight coffee aftertaste. Definitely unique. Not bad either.

Pours a dark brown to see through black with little head. Fair amount of carbonation. Aroma is slightly burnt roasted malt. Taste is burnt roasted malt. The mouthfeel was very creamy. So creamy I want more.

Cask at American beer fest White Horse, London. Deep brown pour with a beige head on top. Chocolate, roasted malt aroma. Milk chocolate, coffee, almond, caramel taste. Quite sweet. My dear Grandmother would have really enjoyed this American version of a cream stout.

Nice beer. Easy to drink & unusually yummy for a stout. I love stouts, but this one is just plain old pleasant. I can share this with my beerpussy friends (ewww....dark beer.. to bitter...) you know, you have them too. Dark ,creamy, roasty, chocolaty, with a super smooth finish.

Deep black, almost completely opaque, slight brown hue at the edge. Very light aroma of roasted barley and carbon. Crisp and clear to start, roasted malt, dark coffee and chocolate all hit at once, slight bitterness of dak roast at the end, hops are very mild, Not much of the milk suga taste that I’m ised to in milk stouts.
