Bottle, 0.5%. Roasted aroma, hint of salt liquorice. Almost black colour. Small off-white head. The flavour is roasted and watery. Watery, bready, and roasted finish. Tastes all right, but is clearly low alcohol.

Bottle. Pours cloudy very dark brown with small light tan head. Clear aroma of coffee, with roasty and estery notes. Roasty and acidic flavour with notes of yeast and malt. Roasty aftertaste. Watery but not entirely disappointing for the style.

33cl bottle from Longacres Garden Centre, Windlesham, named as Milk Stout only.. A cherry colar looking pour with a ring of beige head; aroma of rich chocolate with a hint of vanilla; dry in the mouth with toasted grains and then sweet chocolate; leading to a bitter, burnt toast finish with lingering vanilla. Rather good - one of the best LA beers I've come across.

33 cl bottle from Systembolaget, Avenyn store. Only called "Stout" but part of label read "Milk Stout", no mention of chocolate. On December 5, 2017. BB 13 Sep 2018.Clear dark brownish read to black color, builds up a decent light brown head that settles fast but still stays around. Roasted, ash, slight acidic scent. Roasted, charred, some coffee taste. Charred, dry aftertaste. Medium light, also fizzy, mouthfeel. Medium bitterness. Not brilliant, but as a very low alcohol beer feels great I can actually get something black and roasted.6/4/6/2/11=2.9

33cl bottle from Longacres Garden Centre, Bagshot. ola coloured with a ring of white head; some winter spice on the aroma but not too strong; rather watery with cinnamon and cloves dominating and leaving a very dry aftertaste; otherwise there's a malty body and a touch of orange. Spiced winter beers are not a favorite of mine, but this is a reasonable approximation, albeit rather thin.
