Commercial Description:
A traditional full-bodied stout brewed with lactose (milk sugar). The subtle sweetness imparted by the lactose balances the sharpness of the highly roasted grains which give this delicious beer its black color.

Bottle: Poured a dark black with almost no head. The aroma was roasted malts and sweet chocolate. The flavor was milky smooth, sweet roasted malts, chocolate, and a touch of coffee beans. Overall, this is an excellent sweet stout.

12 oz bottle. Pours black, with little to no head. An interesting beer that mostly works. For this beer they added lactose to sweeten up the stout. Yes, lactose, as in, that stuff that gives you muscle cramps. This mostly works, but at times it seems as though the taste of the milk and the taste of the stout are at odds with each other, so the flavor can be a bit schizophrenic at times. Overall fairly good, but I think I might like their plain porter better.

Pours a very dark brown with red highlights when held to the light. Very thick bubbly head. Not very much on the nose but does smell a bit like an iced coffee with cream and sugar. Mouthfeel is light with a smooth and creamy consistency. Taste is very similar to the nose with some bitter chocolate and roastiness. This is a decent beer but not my style.

Sampled at GABF. Dark black pour with tan head. Aroma of chocolate, light lactic notes. Flavor is chocolate, roast, and a light sweetness. Smooth mouthfeel with sweet finish. Delicious.

My wife brought this back to me from NC. The flavor has a good blend of "milky" goodness and stout I have has some "milky or vanilla" stouts/porters, namely Breckenridge Vanilla Porter that has too much "milk". Duck Rabbit does not over do it. You still can taste the stout finish.

Right up there with Guinness on my dark-beer faves list. Great stuff out of my hometown, Farmville, NC. Has a very full-body, with a slightly sweet finish, and it’s blacker than night.
