Can to tulip.
Appearance: golden bronzed color in the glass with a two finger white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace to leave some spotty lace
Aroma: milk chocolate, white chocolate, vanilla beans, coffee beans and a subtle roastiness
Flavor: takes the prior noted aromas to blend sweet and roasty; mild aftertaste of the vanilla beans and coffee
Texture: medium bodied, leans towards being a sipper; semi-smooth along tongue; finishes creamy sweet
Overall: though I'm not always taken in by this "white stout" sort of thing, I had to try this and wasn't appalled, I think I could come back to.

Golden colour with some suspended chunks. Aroma is like cookies. Sweetish but doable. Something of cold brew coffee.

Fairly hazy goldenand peach coloured body with a nice, two to three centimetre tall pure white head that fades fairly quickly. Aroma of cream, pungent malt, peat, lightly smoked malts, some relatively deep oatmeal, bunches of caster sugars and residual sweetness and perhaps more lactose notes than I could imagine - this one is very deep, incredibly pungent and malt/yeast heavy. Full-bodied; Strong robust yeast and cream notes show without any respite with an oatmeal and smoked peat flavour that shows a deep, pure malt flavour and a dose of robust caster sugar and pure lactose that is almost cloying, due to it's overwhelming sweet characteristics that don't have a balance. Aftertaste shows pretty much just the deep, full-bodied malts and the pungent lactose, caster sugar and even icing sugar notes without much of a soft or nuanced characteristic - this only really shows deep malts, alcohol and especially lactose showing through with a deep chocolate (white) note as well. Overall, a pungent, strong and very malty (despite none of them being roasted or even toasted) component throughout. Not a bad beer, and while sort of funky, this one works well for this 'style', as it's a non-roasted malt-beer that hits the other right notes for the style, minus the roast. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Carmine Street Beers in New York, New York on 10-June-2019 for US$5,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 06-September-2020.
