This beer doesn’t know if it wants to be a Milk Stout, Oatmeal Stout or an English Stout and it doesn’t have to. We’re not so much worried about classification as we are about flavor, and it’s got plenty. It is created with our special blend of base malts plus six different specialty malts , hence the name. 7 Layer Stout is a full-bodied session beer with loads of malt flavor.

Its not bad, admittedly I'm just not nearly as into stouts as I used to be, but I was relieved to find this milk stout at most semi-sweet, with modest chocolate and dark malt flavors, maybe a wee hint of coffee, and overall NOT full of candy/pastry flavors. So it held on as a more traditional stout, tasted like malt (and a little hop but not much), and came across reasonably balanced. I drank the whole thing without any sense that it was too much, too big, too sweet or too stupid. I drank it without a care in the world, and that's fine in my book.

Draft at the brewery. Pours dark brown/black color with tan head. Aromas of roasted malt and chocolate. Sweet milk chocolate flavor with slightly bitter roasted malt. Medium to full body with minimal carbonation.
