Interrogation
Scofflaw Brewing Company

 

Looks somewhat watery for a milk stout.
This brew is dry and pungent on the palate. I feel it fit better in the Brown Ale category, not Milk Stout.
Moving on.

Pours black with two fingers of khaki foam. Aroma is coffee with roasty malts right behind. Toasty, nutty malts, and mild earthy malts mix with bread for the remainder of the aroma. Coffee is medium roast. Flavor profile puts coffee right out front again, followed by roasty, toasty, and bready malts. A little caramel, toffee, and fig work their way through. Coffee is medium in thickness. Mouth feel is mildly creamy in texture with a sharp bite at the back. Thickness is medium. Overall, coffee with a mild temperament stout behind it.

12oz can into shaker pint. Hotel room review. Reviewed from notes.

 

 

 

Interrogation has a thin, beige head and a dark-brown appearance, with minimal lacing. The aroma is of faint coffee and possible dark malt. The flavor is of dark coffee, roasted malts, and low sweetness and bitterness. I detected no milk notes. Interrogation has a thin body and a dry finish.

First stout and coffee in a while

 

 

Appearance: Arrives tar colored with a finger's worth of beige foam that leaves some spotty lace

Smell: Coffee and chocolate, with a dark fruit element and a hint of caramel

Taste: Coffee forward with milk chocolate tones developing; an earthy hop character builds, through the middle; after the swallow, some dark fruit and sweet caramel tones emerge to drive home the finish

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: A nice coffee stout that would benefit from a higher ABV to fill out the mouthfeel
