Brewed in Lancaster since 1995, we’re proud to present America’s original Milk Stout. Notes of coffee and chocolate play counterpoint to mild hop, and subtle sweetness from the addition of milk sugar.

Bottle from Vintage Cellar. Dark brown/black pour with an ephemeral tan head. Aroma is mostly coffee. Maybe a little nutty. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is smooth burnt toast, hints of fruit, and coffee. Finish is relatively dry and coffee. Not getting much in the way of chocolate. However, I am enjoying it.

Pour is a black with a small tan head. Aroma is some roasted malt with coffee and chocolate. Flavor is about the same as the aroma. Some coffee with a slight roast. Everything seems muted though and you are waiting for something to jump out at you but nothing really does. Left Hand brewing has a much better offering.

Bottle on 07/03/2008. Dark black body with a medium very creamy tan head. Roasted malt, chocolate and light caramel aroma. Very smooth chocolate and roast flavor, with very subtle bitter in the finish. Medium body with moderate carbonation and a very creamy mouthfeel.

Bottle. Pour is a dark brown with quite a big head and a very roasty aroma. Scorched malt with a touch of dark chocolate. Flavor is more like milk chocolate and burnt malt, but it is fairly subdued and could be a little fuller. As is, this is really nice but comes off as a bit thin for my tastes.

Chocolate, brown sugar and don’t forget about the nipple essence, oh I mean milk....a tinge of coffee presence on the aroma...actually smells of milk...crazy, like friggin milk....brown sugar foam, deep brown body, just about black...yet black is the absence of color, and I truly see a color!....coats the every crevice of possible mouth feel...chocolate, but not pure, bakers or carob powder....very simple construction, easy to drink stout....balanced just so....so it penetrates my appreciation

Dark cream coloured head, black colour. Light carbonation grips the side of the glass. Some aroma of toasted malt comes through as the beer loses it’s chill. Slightly bitter taste but quite smooth and silky. Would be much better without the slight carbonation. A bit heavy on the finish.

Bacon, smoke, and charred wood aroma. Pours opaque black, with a medium tan head. Taste was smoky ringed with light tartness. Pronounced flavor of coffee with some hops on the palate, which lasted a bit too liong. Robust and distinct.

My first milk stout but my third sweet stout. Not too much aroma. For some reaon I was expecting a somewhat sweeter brew. I guess stout is stout, milk or sweet, it still has a background bitterness to it. Had a very slight sense of smokeyness or burnt background in there. This stout is mild compared to the bitterness of Lion stout. Overall it is not an offensive brew. Has a roasty linger on the finish that lasts for a while.
