A smooth, rich, Milk Stout brewed with a custom blend of chai spices and the perfect complement of dark, roasted malts. Drink this beer fresh.

0.33 l bottle. Shared with ViΕ‘nja 666 and Pilot Goran. Thanks. Dark brown, small head. Intensely spicy, overwhelming. Olive, green tea. Light vanilla, light licorice. Extremely sweet, thick. Syrupy. Stout character is lost. Medium body. Spices took over.

Bottle from Trader Joe's. Pours a deep, oily black with a half a finger of beige foam that dissipates quickly. Lovely chai nose: cardamom, clove and nutmeg dominate. Chocolate, umami on the palate. Nice thickness, but not quite chewy. Spice is well-balanced. Hmmm....You know, it's hard to rate. I like it, but one bottle is enough....still well-executed. --- Beer merged from original tick of Japa on 29 Aug 2017 at 22:16 - Score: 7. Original review text: You know, it's hard to rate.

Clear reddish brown beer, creamy beige head, pretty stable, non adhesive. Aroma: lots of chai indeed, cinnamon, caramel, cookies, ginger bread. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: lots and lots of spices, cinnamon, caramel, sugary. Aftertaste: lots of spices, some chocolate, soft roast, pretty sweet, lovely stuff!

At a tasting, many thanks, smallish creamy head, opaque, very dark brown color, aroma of clove, cardamom, nutmeg and cinamon, flavor of chocolate, wafers, and a melange of sweet spices with some chocolate cake in the back. Original and highly enjoyable, very nicely balanced.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Tom Lβs place. Thanks kerenmk. Black with a bit of tan foam. Aroma of winter spices (cinnamon, cardamom, clove, nutmeg) and some chocolate. Sweet flavor with chocolate, winter spices, and a light bitterish note. Medium-bodied.
