Castle Milk Stout has a thick texture, strong flavour and a full, satisfying and complex taste, with a hint of caramel. Dark roasted malt provides its distinctive dark colouring, and the creamy, smooth head comes from a special yeast.

Sought this out due to a recent Zythophile post. 340ml bottle. Very dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of caramel/ butterscotch and heavy roasted malt. Some spices and maybe a little cardboard. 6+ Interesting - a big buttery caramel syrup note but it's really not sweet and the roasted/ burnt notes achieve balance nicely. I'm a sucker for a finish that's different but works. bb 8/19 but seems pretty fresh.

Bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma is very light, with toasted malt and a touch of cardboard. Flavour isn't too offensive, with cardboard, oxidized toasted malt and earthy notes. Not terrible but it's certainly not optimal.

Bottle at home from Savannah at London Bridge station. Pours black with a decent off white head. Not much of an aroma on the beer, a little lactose maybe. Taste is sweet, bit of chocolate and coffee, plenty of lactose. Not a bad sweet stout.
