Not your typical “Jelly of the Month Club” beer. Dark roasted malt and bittersweet cocoa and coffee flavor and aroma burst from this pitch black milk stout. The full body and sweetness are derived from the addition of lactose (aka milk sugar) which is not fermentable by beer yeast. A healthy dose of English Kent Goldings hops provides a counterpoint to this ale’s rich and complex maltiness.

Pour is a thick black with a small tan head. Aroma is a minor roast with some molasses sweetness and brown sugar. Flavor is a minor roasted malt followed by a minor coffee and finishes with a heavy sweetness. Decent milk stout that is a bit over the top on the sweet side.
