New Holland Dragons Milk

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

thought it was a stout at first; pours almost black with thick, creamy consistency. flavors that dominate include vanilla, and caramel malts, along with coffee, chocolate and alcohol. surprisingly light and slightly bitter finish.

Very dark brown pour with a small, foamy, tan head. Strong aroma of oak and caramel malts with a slight sour note, some dark fruit and a bit of breadines. Strong initial oak flavor, roasted caramel malt, and dark fruit. There’s a bit of sour character that must come from some spontaneous fermentation in the barrels. Wonderfully complex flavor. There’s so many different flavors popping out at different times. Velvety smooth, full body. Truly one of my favorites. A great beer to sip on a cold winter day.

Pours a dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma is of roasted malts, chocolate, vanilla, and molasses. Flavor is of chocolate, oak, vanilla, roasted malts, and molasses. The oak and the chocolate blend together very nicely. Probably my favorite brew from New Holland.

A beautiful dark brew that boasts a full flavor, subtle flavors of vanilla and oak in the body. Drinks smooth all the way through, with a slightly swet aftertaste. Great beer.

the first bottle i had of this was terribly infected and very sour. this, on the other hand is incredible. it reminds me of an imperial porter... but not.

pours a very dark burgundy brown. the head is tan but minimal and manages to leave some spotty lace on the glass in it*s short time on this planet. vaya con dios, my friend! aromas of vanilla cream, coffee, roasty grains, chocolate and brown sugar fill my nose. as it hits nearly room temperature, the bourbon-y/spicy/woody characters really start to come in to play. the flavor is much like the aroma... lots of roast/malt powdery goodness, coffee, milky chocolate, caramel, vanilla and faint barrel/earthy notes with a spicy kick on the finish. coffee really hangs on in the aftertaste as the belly gets nice and warm from the booze. extremely "well" bodied but seemingly light for how much flavor it packs in. it*s not sticky as it has a pleasant acidity and spiciness to cut through the richness...

i must have been drinking a lot of craptacular beer lately because i actually had to stop what i was doing to enjoy this... 8/4/8/4/19/4.3

Wow! This beer is delicious. A good cold day beer, not heavy and hot but it is soothing and warming to the stomach. Great flavors and a finish. Excellent on tap and in bottle.

100th Rating! Yum Yum Yum! Loved the taste here, and aroma. More chocolate than coffee i think, with a thick finish. Love that it just lingers on the tongue. Hardly any alcohol taste in it. Great Great brew. Cheers!

Dan’s Bachelor Party Extended Weekend Rating #65 of 90. On tap at New Holland in Holland, MI. Pours black with ruby edge. Lost of coffee, toffee, caramel and bourbon. This was my hands down favorite from NH. Very good!
