Year of New Beer: Coffee Milk Stout, Stone Brewing (CA)

Written By: Dion on 10/09/2014

The expected coffee bean greets the nose, along with bitter chocolate and light vanilla. On the tongue, the roast is initially somewhat one-dimensional, but opens up nicely with warmth as a lactose sweetness joins the fray. Slightly nutty with a touch of toasted bread crust. A departure of sorts for Stone, but a pretty solid brew regardless.
