HUNTER, our creamy double milk stout with cocoa nibs and lactose is a beer so sumptuous it demands respect. In part two of our HUNTER VERTICAL SERIES, we added whole vanilla beans to complement its roastiness with an elegant rounded flavor.

Bottle @ Post-Easter Procrastination, Ulfborg. Pours cloudy very dark brown with airy tan head. Clear aroma of roast, caramel malt and coffee, with touches of lactose and chocolate. Sweetish flavour of chocolate, coffee and vanilla, with notes of malt, lactose and roast. Sweetish and roasty aftertaste. Warming alcohol presence. Very nice.

Poured from a 22 oz bottle. Aroma is full of milk chocolate and lactose with a light roast and vanilla character. Hints of dark fruit. Pours black with a small, fairly thin, dark mocha head that recedes quickly to the edges where a small film lingers. Light lacing and small legs. Flavor is rather sweet and lactose forward with a lot of milk chocolate along with some bitter, dark chocolate. Medium light vanilla character. Light roast with moderate bitterness and faint dark fruit notes. Hints of alcohol. Mouthfeel is full bodied and creamy with medium low carbonation. Low to medium low astringency and low to medium low carbonation. Overall, an alright beer but I am not very impressed by it. I find the astringency and bitterness off putting and the vanilla is not very noticeable. The finish just isnโ€™t creamy and sweet like I would expect from the beer.
