Poured a black body with minimal head and lace patches down the glass. Aroma is comprised of mild pumpkin spice and coffee malt but not much else. A little thick and sticky, has mostly a coffee feel, has some pumpkin spice underneath it but it's not really a pumpkin stout and more of a mild coffee stout with some pumpkin added. Not a bad beer but just found it too light/bland in the taste department as neither coffee or pumpkin aspect are well done.

I have to say, if you're a pumpkin-spice-latte-milk-stout, then you are aptly named... :)

Given this makes me think of 'white-girl lattes', this is far from anything of the such. Beautifully dark with a accompanying dark head, the smell is deliciously sweet as it lifts off that normal smell you'd expect from a milk stout. Mouthfeel starts off quite watery, but as it warms the beers texture changed (at least to me) to something a tad thicker leaving that terrible water feeling behind. It's a solid milk stout, not quite what you smell you get in your mouth, but still solid representation of the style. I enjoyed it and would definitely look for more moving forward.

Pours a dark brown – black w/ a thin ¼” of mocha tan foam, microbubbles, quick fade. Aromas of pumpkin spice, roasted malts, cinnamon, touch of vanilla, and slight milk chocolate. The taste follows; pumpkin spice, roasted 2 row malts, chocolate malts, nutmeg spice, cinnamon, subtle vanilla and Brazilian coffee. Mouthfeel is creamy, thin to medium body with low to medium carbonation and a smooth semi sticky finish, and a lingering pinch of spice. Overall flavor is not artificial, its non-cloying and very easy to drink. It will totally satisfy your basic desire for a ‘Pumpkin Spice Latte’ beer.
