Beers with Peps: Brews Review- Left Hand Brewing Milk Stout

by | Apr 26, 2016


Welcome everyone to the final few backlogged beer posts. After these I will be update with consolidating the blogs and can then close down the old blog for good. And what a beer to start today off with then with my favourite stout of 2015. First tried this beer at Mother Kelly's (a London Beer venue) and fell in love with it. Can tell you straight away that I miss this beer since moving to Canada (managed to buy some on a trip to Boston, but drank it all to quickly).


Details

Name: Milk Stout
Style: Sweet Stout
Brewery: Left Hand Brewing (Website)
Country: Colorado, USA.
Price: £3.99 GBP - Bottle
ABV: 6%

Commercial Fluff:
"Milk sugar in your stout is like cream in your coffee. Dark and delicious, America’s great milk stout will change your perception about what a stout can be. “Preconceived notions are the blinders on the road to enlightenment.” Udderly delightful"

Own Opinion

Sight: This bottle pours a dark rich brown almost black colour. Looks  rich and creamy and has a nice big light brown head. Looking good so far. Side note that nice head soon disappeared.
Aroma: The aroma is smooth and pleasant with hints of milk chocolate, roasted malts and a tiny bit of burnt coffee. The smell alone makes my mouth water,
Taste: Ticks all the boxes for me. Coffee..Check. Roasted malts..Check. Vanilla..Check. It's like a fancy milkshake. And I just want more please.
Would I buy it again? Yes.

No surprise with that answer! This is a beer I would be happy to drink everyday. Sure maybe it's not to healthy for me, but damn what a tasty drink. Even better let they make this beer in a Nitro form too. Which I will try to get on a future visit to the USA. As always leave me a comment if you have tried it and thanks for reading.
