Look: Dark chocolate with a little tan head.
Smell: Strong peppermint mixed with dark roasted coffee.
Taste: Peppermint is the predominant flavor, along with the aforementioned bitter coffee and chocolate flavors of a milk stout.
Mouthfeel: Thick as any stout should be, with minimal carbonation.
Overall: A neat experiment. I don’t think I’d buy it regularly year-round, but it works out well as a holiday treat for a party.

Had this at Epcot's Holiday Festival.
Appearance: Dark brown body with a khaki brown head of thick bubbles.
Aroma: Peppermint of course just dominates. There was a slight hint of something akin to coffee, but other than that it is all peppermint.
Taste/Mouthfeel: First sip has a decent amount of roasted malt sweetness and then that peppermint comes in a hits you on the back end. A nice smooth mouthfeel from that lactose addition.
Overall: This one wasn't bad, just not something I would want to drink more than one pint of, thankfully you only get a small glass of it! It takes a deft hand to add peppermint to a beer and it can be easily over done. This one is on the borderline of just the right amount and too much.
