New Holland Dragons Milk

Brewed by New Holland Brewing Company
Style: Stout
Holland, Michigan USA

Brown opaque, and pours as if still, but forms a nice cocoa colored head. Aroma is sweet chocolate, englishy malt, and raisins. Taste is very chocolate milky, with smooth malt, bourbon, oak and vanilla. Reminds me of Weyerbacher Insanity with more chocolate and less bourbon. $10/22oz

bottle poured a dark red brown in color with a thin frothy dark tan head that retained well. aroma has nutty malt, caramel, bourbon, light barrel wood, and vanilla. medium light mouth feel with average carbonation. flavor has nice bourbon hits, barrel, brown malt, light hop bitterness, and some oats. nice and creamy but well malted. this really benefited from the barrel aging both in flavor and texture.

Dark jet-black color, has a good creamy brown head that leaves a nice lacing in my glass. Sweet roasted chocolate and coffee aromas, sweet fruity woody, smokey chocolate and coffee flavors. Nice milky bitter-sweet finish. Medium-full body with creamy and smooth mouthfeel, alcohol well hidden, very nice.

Pours a clear brown with a thin covering of tan foam, spotty but decent lacing. Prominent sweet vanilla and oak in the aroma. More of the same in the flavor, caramel an llightly roasted malt with lots of vanilla and some nice oak undertones. A hint of hopping and some warm alcohol in the finish. Mild carbonation, medium body, a silky smooth sipper. Good stuff.

22 oz bottle from Surdyks in Minneapolis. Leather, oak, tobacco, caramel, and a mild bourbon finish that lingers for awhile. A very nice, drinkable brew. Cross b/t an English BW and an imp. stout.

Poured from a bomber. Thick dark brown and cloudy. A thin ring of head remains.. Intense aromas of caramel, molasses, vanilla, bourbon, coffee. Very smooth flavor and the alcohol seems to be well hidden. I will let this warm up to see if the flavor intensifies. Not quite as complex as an imperial stout, but still a good sipper.

I got some of this from dra19 and from acertain, so to whichever one of you whose bottle I opened tonight I thank you! The pour was super dark brown with lighter brown hightlights on the edges. A tan, one-finger tall head popped up and provided a bit of lacing. The aroma was vanilla, cinnamon and booze. A pleasant whiskey barrel booze mind you, but it’s right there, not hiding from anyone. The flavor is chocolate and smoke initially with the whiskey and vanilla coming in on the backside. A mild and easy drinking mouthfeel. A great winter warmer. This beer is missing just the tiniest bit of something that would make it a world-class brew. With a touch more piney/floral hops this would be...well...a big old IS I suppose.

Very dark, opaque, anise all over with dark fruits, roasty, medium bodied, very drinkable and smooth. My wife says that this is probably something like Indiana Jones was drinking at the bar in one of those movies.
