Could you believe that I decided to go with this one with as simple an occasion as dinner? Yup, I did it. In my echelon of Terrapin greatness, Moo Hoo Stout < Wake N' Bake. Still, I was really looking forward to enjoying this beer with dinner. If I recall, I actually had breakfast for dinner and thought this would be a perfect compliment.
The beer was poured into a stemless brandy glass. It poured a dark brown color with two to three fingers of tan head. Great retention. Lots of lacing on the sides of the glass. A very attractive looking beer. I could detect aromas of roasted malt, chocolate, brown sugar, something akin to Hershey's syrup. Smelled delightful.
I continued to taste lactose, milk and dark chocolate, oats, with just a hint of booze. The brew was medium bodied with light carbonation. With the oats, it lent a very smooth, creamy, taste. It's a great milk stout, I'd be glad to enjoy again.
