This creamy Stout with ist beige head of foam was first introduced in England in 1907. It is soft upfront full-bodied, rich and malty and sweet with gentle notes of roasted coffee, bitter chocolate and vanille in the finish. It got its "milk" moniker and residual sweetness from the addition to the boiling wort of a good portion of lactose, an infermentable sugar found in milk. The base of Weyermann® Barke® Pilsner gives this ale a deeply malty backbone, supportet by small amounts of barley and wheat caramel malts. Cluster hops sets floral-spicy counterpoints for both flavor and aroma.
This complex brew stands up well as a contrast to a rustic beef roast or stew, or as a complement to a chocolate cake with a gooey inside.
Ingredients: water, Weyermann® barley malt, Weyermann® wheat malt, 5 % lactose, hops, yeast
