This Cafécito inspired Milk Stout was brewed in collaboration w/ our very good friend Panolo! Our goal was to make you feel as if with every sip you take, it transports you to your nearest Ventanita! Que Rico Meng!

Espumita, Meng from Wakefield, 16 oz can. Purchased from Franklin Beer, Franklin, PA on 20/02/23 for $ 6.50 (Including tax) - $ 0.406/oz. In reefer at store, stored at 34 degrees at home. Reviewed 04/03/23 (Review 3057). Note that I use DD/MM/YY protocol.
Stamped on bottom of the can “QUE RICO MENG 08/18/22”. Served at 44.9 degrees in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter. The final temperature was 50.1 degrees.
Appearance – 3.5.
First pour – Amber Brown (SRM 18), translucent.
Body – Ruby Brown (SRM 24), opaque. Under direct light, same. When rear lite, translucent ruby.
Head – Average (Maximum 1.3 cm, aggressive center pour), almond, comes up slowly, high density with a rocky top, receding to a 0.15 - 0.2 cm crown and a large, thin island.
Lacing – Fair. Thin reticulum with mostly empty space.
Aroma – 3.5 – Weak coffee. No malt, no yeast, no hops. No ethanol (6.5 % ABV as marked on label) aroma.
Flavor – 3.5 – Weak coffee, slightly sweet. No hops, no malt, no yeast. No gastric warming. No dimethylsulfide or diacetyl.
Palate – 3.5 – Medium; almost creamy; soft carbonation.
Final impression and summation: 3.5 Best thing about this beer is its appearance and that’s slightly above average. Otherwise, it’s just a lactose-loaded weak coffee with a shot of ethanol.
