Mill Street Milk Stout

Brewed by Mill St. Brewery
Style: Sweet Stout
Toronto, Canada

On tap at The Kick Off in Waterloo. Taps a very nice opaque brown with a large mocha head. The aroma on this one is awesome! Roasty malts with coffee, out-done by sweet vanilla and cream, very nice. Flavour is very sweet, but not cloyingly sweet. Waves of malts, roasty, coffee, toffee, creamy, vanilla, and very smooth feeling. A tad bit of residual sugar in there too. Goes down easy for something so sweet, and I usually hate excessive sweetness in a beer. Everything blends really well in my opinion. Definitely one of my favourtie stouts I’ve tried. I have no idea why other people are finding this thin and light, it’s got plenty body, perhaps they’re put off by the sweetness or w/e. I love it. Wouldn’t drink boatloads of it in one sitting, though I can’t really think of any stout I would want to do that with.

On tap from Volo. A nice tall glass of chocolate milk that would go perfectly with my lunch every day! Poured think and creamy. Simple to describe: Chocolate Milk!

[2049-20090325] Tap. Roasted chocolate malt aroma is sweet. Black body with a long-lasting creamy tan head. Milk chocolate roasted malt flavour has a long roasted finish. Full body has some rough bitterness. Tasty, and quite aptly named.

On tap at the brewpub - came an extremely deep black with a thick mocha head. Aromas of espresso, roast and a slight sweetness. Flavour very nice - big roasted chewy malts, and bitter espresso upfront fading into sweet, faintly lactic middle and a long bitter hop finish. The only milk stout I’ve had, but I’m quite impressed. They got a lot of body and flavour into a 4.8% beer. Well done.

Aroma of coffee, dark chocolate and liquorice, darkest brown, small cappuccino head. Flavour has coffee, cocoa, roasted malt, woody and nutty. Light bodied, very well balanced, quite bitter, sourish, a real treat. Very good.

Appearance: Jet black with a medium yellow head. Aroma, very slight malt, milk, peat with slight chocolate. Flavour: Milky sour, peat, chocolate, smoke, turf, long bitter dry finish.

On tap at Volo. Black, decent tan head. Sweet aroma, some roast. Taste is decent - almost too sweet, otherwise comparable to their cobblestone. Decent, I always applaud a good take on the stout style in stout starved Ontario.

On tap At the MS Pub: A dark black color with a tight 2 finger tan cap....decent lacing. Subtle aroma of sweetness, light mustiness, grassy hops. Full bodied, rich cocoa-coffee tastes mingle with roasty malts and a modest sweetness, balanced well with some light bittering...the finish is roasty sharp and lightly bitter. One of the better milk stouts I have tasted, lactose sweetness is detectable but subtle, very fresh, very approachable
