Description
It all started with a humble homebrew kit and the drive to make better beer. Tired of the same bland and dated choices everywhere, Air Force friends Eric Wallace and Dick Doore set out to make the kind of beer that excited them; beer they wanted to drink. A hobby quickly became an obsession and it wasn't long before Left Hand Brewing opened for business on January 22, 1994. Left Hand has steadily increased its production, making the Brewers Association’s Top 50 Craft Brewers list in 2012.

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.

Klares Gold im Glas, Schaum passt. Schon in der Nase ausgesprochen hopfig, dazu Haferflocken. Im Trunk ebenso hopfig, crispy, sehr leckeres Pils. Kaum bitter, gefällt mir gut.

(Can) Cloudy golden amber colour with creamy, off-white head. Roasted, malty nose with coffee, oatmeal cookies, vanilla fudge, white chocolate and raisins. Roasty, malty, sweet taste with notes of vanilla, coffee, oatmeal cookies, white chocolate, raisins and a sweetish finish with low bitterness. Medium body, sweet. Quite weird, and definitely a bit too sweet. Still, actually quite rich and tasty. Nice one.

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.
