Commercial Description:
Dragon's Milk is a 17th century term used to describe the strong beer usually reserved for royalty. This strong ale was aged in oak for over 120 days. The aging process extracts flavors from the wood, which contribute to its complex character. Hints of bourbon flavor perfectly compliment its roasted malts to produce a beer fit for a King.

A dark Malty brew with noticeable alcohol contend. Nice carbonation. Small light brown head. Aroma, sweet and malty. Fruity malty and sweet taste. A really delightful brew.

22 oz bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a small head. Aroma is malty, with a solid, wonderful vanilla and caramel twist. Extremely tasty. Notes of oak, vanilla, chocolate, and roasted malts. This beverage is good - but definitely a beer to share as a 22 oz is just about too much for one sitting - even as good as I found it.

Bottle poured into a sniffer produced a fingers worth of tan head that turned to lace on top of a black body Aromas of chocolate and coffee filled my nose a nice oak woodiness as well Taste the same as the nose but with slight alcohol warmth Full bodied brew not much carbonation I had this before I flew out of VA and I am glad I did it turned into a long flight. I finished the bomber by myself and was looking for more it’s a good brew
