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.

Since HuskerTan, jbuskirk and I didn’t find any Millstream beers around Omaha, and Millstream didn’t make it to the Great Nebraska Beer Festival, I was happy to find them at the Wohlner’s next to my hotel. Bottle. Clear brown color, tan head. Aroma of sweet cocoa. Taste has chocolate, toffee. OK.

Draft. A- Smoky, peat, subtle booze, malty. A- Dark brown color, dark liquid, light brown head. T- Smoky, malty, woody. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, smoky finish. O- The guy at the bar was raving about this so I tried it. Why wouldn’t I like it, it’s everything I like. Well, it was not meant to be. It smelled like someone lit a garbage can full of leaves and grass on fire. The taste seemed a little light for a barleywine, especially a barrel aged one. Just wasn’t there. It was okay.
