Take a walk down Candy Cane Lane and experience the aromas of rich chocolate, fresh peppermint, and a hint of coffee. This smooth, full-bodied Imperial Peppermint Milk Stout is reminiscent of peppermint bark and will keep you warm and cozy on a cold winter's night. So snuggle up to the fire, and enjoy the mo-mint.

Ups the sweetness of regular Nitro Milk Stout without adding any roast or bitterness to offset the sugars. Mild mint notes on the back end, but the milk chocolate front grows cloy, lacking carbonation to keep the lactose from settling on the palate. Not an improvement.

Pours near black with a small tan head. It smells of peppermint and chocolate malt. The flavor is very sweet with chocolate and peppermint the most prominent flavors. Smooth drinking, to me it avoids being too sweet and works well.

Big can. Barely any peppermint in the nose. Nytro, so its completely flat but an animated pour. A little artificial in the flavors but the 9% is well hidden. A little weird on the taste buds but hey, I'm not much into sweet cloying stouts. Could do without this one.
