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.

Perfect beer. Chewy like a raisinette. The sweetness is evident but not overly so. Cloying but very repectful of company such as soft cheese. Aged chedar did not go well as the tangle ended up in a kind of rotten egg thing.

This is my #1 Milk Stout of all time! Finally got it distributed to the east coast of NJ. I’ve had them all..This Milk sugar based stout earned a spot in my basment beer fridge for life. Drink em’ while you can, Don’t let the nutrition facts bother you..Milk stouts have a healthy amount of milk sugar fat for your brew gut. When the snow is fallen pour it into your favorite pint glass and tip those cows!!

This is an amazing creation that should be tried by any sweet stout lover. This is in my top 10 of best beer in existence. Nice milky head, sweet and smooth with a mocha kick - so easy to drink and enjoy, it’s almost like a meal in a bottle.
