Canned 11/19, drunk 12/14/18.
Pours a seemingly opaque, ebony with dark mahogany edges and a dark beige head that slowly fades to a ring.
Nose shows a fair amount of lactose, but it's met quickly with milk chocolate, espresso bean and very light vanilla. Very minor dark fruits, with no alcohol or flaw. Sweetness seems pretty appropriate, there, but not overdone for the style. Very clean for a Kent Falls beer, but I guess you don't wanna make a coffee milk stout farmy/funky.
In the mouth it's both malty and dry with light lactose and chocolate-like sweetness and a softish texture with low, fairly engaging carbonation. Very low bitterness; could probably use a bit more, to be honest, but clean and with no alcohol. Not sure I love this being 7%; it just kind of gets too sweet and strong. Feels like these same flavors could be accomplished easily at 5% or less. Still, it's quite competent and drinkable.
