swung by the brewery the other day for the dirty deeds release and noticed this beer available for tasting and pints as well. this is a beer from a LIBME (Long Island Beer & Malt Enthusiast) club. they held a contest and the winning beer was brewed at GSB.

decided to go for a few ounce pour while at the brewery for the dirty deeds release. brown to black on the pour with a creamy tan milk stout head. nose is milk stout with some roast. flavor matched the nose with roast and powdered chocolate and milk stoutiness as well as a mouthful of earthy malt. decent milk stout but nothing too crazy. fun to try these small batches while they are around though.

At the brewery;

A - Cola brown pour with a beige foam that settled to a thin head.

S - Some cocoa powder, malted milk, and a lingering smoky scent.

T - I like the flavor on this. A light stout that has enough lactose and sweetness of cream, but finishes with a touch of smoke. A decent amount of complexity makes this a solid beer.

M - Dry finish, milky texture, and leaves a slight tobacco feel on the tongue. No carbonation is noted.

O - I'd like to see this some more. One of the better milk stouts out there and its made locally on Long Island.

On draft at the brewery.

Poured a deep brown hue with a half finger foamy dark tan hue. There was good retention and lacing.

The smell featured roasted malts, bakers chocolate and a touch of smoke.

The taste consisted of a full on roasted barley, maybe black patent, charcoal and a touch of lactose.

The mouthfeel was typical of the style with a pleasant carbonation.

Overall a tasty milk stout. This is the first installment of the Pro-Am series with my homebrew club LIBME.
