Phantom Cowboy Barrel Aged Milk Stout
Homestead Beer Co.

22 ounce white wax capped bottle, 2019 vintage (think it was a February release). Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about an inch tan head that stayed around for a while. There's also a good amount of lacing. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like roasted malt, chocolate, bourbon, vanilla, cream and coffee. For the most part I think the taste is just like the aroma, but there's also some caramel and burnt/charred malt flavors also noticeable. The bourbon/barrel character isn't strong but you still know this is a barrel aged brew. Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's coating and a bit creamy with a moderate amount of carbonation. Easy enough to drink. I liked this brew a lot, certainly worth trying if you haven't had it before. Just picked this up in the cooler at a local beer store this morning so there's still some on the shelves in the area if you look! $14.99 a bomber.
