White chocolate stout. Drink with your eyes closed and your mind open. It may pour deliciously golden, but it’s all roasted stout flavours from the start, with a smooth and slightly sweet milky bar finish. It doesn’t matter if it’s black or white…

Keg at BrewDog Shoreditch - London. Pours copper-orange with a foamy, off-white head. The aroma holds mild cocoa, spice. Medium sweet flavor, a little artificial tasting, with notes of cheap imitation chocolate. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Cloying finish with more artificial chocolate, mild bitterness, bread, some fruit at the edges. Odd.

Keg at BD CLJ, 27/10/14. Clear golden orange with a decorative off white swirl and solid edgework. Nose is sweet, shades of Milky Bar, sweet candy, light spice. Taste comprises light coffee grinds, sweet tuneage, earthy, whisper of white chocolate, candy bar, light spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok stuff if a little sweet at times but they’ve pulled this off fairlt well.

Keg at Brewdog Shepard?s bush. Clear golden orange coloured pour with a thin off white head. Aroma is sweet kamp coffee, toffee, earthy veg, choc, praline. Flavour is sweet choc, praline and toffee. Little hint of roast and choc. Palate is medium full, moderate carbonation and pretty sweet. Decent attempt at a blond stout.

Keg at Brewdog Birmingham; clear amber pour with a bright white head, surprising milk chocolate aroma, taste has chocolate along with some roast malt, weird drink doesn’t look like how it tastes, but then I think that’s the controversial shit the brewer was aiming for.

Keg at BD CJ. It pours clear golden with a small white head. The nose is sweet milkybar explosion....white chocolate, toast and a good deal of creaminess. The taste is sweet milkybar action, then toasty, chocolate, hay, light spice and earth with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Unique for sure! Milkybar in beer form. Perhaps a bit sickening...

Keg at Brewdog Edinburgh. Pours clear amber, thin white head. Aromas of strawberries and cream, big creamy notes. Taste is more strawberries, big creamy texture. Far too sweet for me though.
