Bottle courtesy of HuskerTan, thank you. Opaque dark brown color, big beige head with good retention. Aroma of cocoa powder, coffee grounds, nutella. Taste is rich and roasty chocolate dipped in espresso. Not sure this is your classic Baltic porter, but it’s tasty.

12oz bottle. Filtered yellow-tan body. Lots of small floaties. Foamy white head. A pretty good beer, if you can get into White IPA. Full bodied. The hops are astringent and dry, the orange peel and coriander are more in the finish. Oddly refreshing. Solid offering.

Sampled from the bottle. Pours a clear dark amber brown with no head whatsoever. Aroma has notes of sweet dark grains and marshmallow supported by sweet pumpkin and spice. Flavor has lots of marshmallow and dark grains with spice supporting.

Bottle. A- Chocolate syrup, cocoa, subtle soy sauce, subtle vanilla. A- Black color, black liquid, light brown head. T- Anise, alcohol, cocoa, roasty, slightly dry. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, roasty finish. O- I’ve been hit or miss with Millstream but this one nailed it. Solid balanced beer with tons of chocolate and a nice balance of roastiness, some anise, and a little alcohol bite, but nothing that hurts it. Quite tasty.
