A sumptuous mini milk stout. We use a carefully curated selection of dark malts for a rounded roastiness with alluring hints of chocolate and coffee. The mouthfeel is opulent and silky smooth with a light caramel sweetness in the finish. Brewed in collaboration with Turning Point Brew Co.

(Cask at The Pocket, Islington, London, 29 May 2025) Black colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of chocolate, coffee and liquorice. Malty, roasted taste with chocolate, coffee, milky sugar, liquorice and a mild roasty bitterness. Light body, with a certain sweetness. Quite drinkable, not as sweet as expected. Tasty and well balanced milk stout. Very nice.

Cask @ Salopian, the pub. Pours dark, small tan head. Cocoa nose. Nicely smooth and chocolatey, with other sweet elements coming into play. Quite flavoursome for 3.8%. Decent.

Half-pint, cask, shared with Finn Colmore. Spotty lacing from a decent off-white head, black in the glass, a ruby glint to it. Smoothly roasted aromas, chocolate malts, promising. Creamy sweet chocolate up front to the taste profile, supported by hints of prunes and liquorice on a backbone of lactose. Sweet malty end, lightly roasted. Quite alright. (Birmingham 13.02.2023).

Delt med Rune. Svart. Luftig filmskum. Aroma av melkesjokolade. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken røstet malt & lakris. Søt. Så vidt litt tørr kakaobitterhet i avslutninga.
