This milk stout’s nose has a cocoa vibe with an undercurrent of dark fruit sweetness. It’s subtle and I have to reach for it, but I can pick it up.
The odd part is that this beer feels thin on the palate. It has a pleasant toasted milk flavor, coupled with chocolate, offering a nice candy-like toffee flavor. I don’t hate it!
At the same time, I have to admit there’s something that isn’t quite pulling the whole beer together, and I’m not quite sure what it is. It’s good but it isn’t great, and I cannot pin down why.
