You're enjoying a 50/50 "take out" style stout made with chocolate, vanilla, and lactose, just like you fav shake! Get it double-double stout style!

Many thx to muchloveforhops3 for this can!

A - Pitch black pour with dense creamy caramel lacing.

S - Light roasty chocolate malt with vanilla accents.

T - Chocolate malt base with light char that swims in vanilla lactose with light chocolate char bitterness on the back side.

M - Medium body that's silky and a little greasy with some noticeable thinness around the edges.

O - A decent beer. They should have put strawberry in this to make it a Neapolitan!

Received a can courtesy of @muchloveforhops3 2-16-24, thanks Doug! No canning date; consumed 5-24-24.

Beer poured black with an okay tan head.

Nose is nice, getting notes of roasted malt, chocolate, vanilla, and lactose.

Taste is a medium sized roasted malt base that works with a nice touch of chocolate and vanilla that allows for the roastiness to see its way thru the additions. Finishes with a nice touch of lactose giving the flavor of mocha. Finishes appropriately sweet for the style.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and pretty smooth.

Overall a well-made beer for the style.

16oz can, a new offering to the area, poured into a tumbler. Black pour with a mocha-colored head. Nose is chocolate, vanilla, with that roasty-malt presence that reminds you its a beer and not a chocolate milkshake. Chocolate malts, vanilla bean, creamy lactose, solid mouthfeel. All-around pretty decent.

16oz can. No dating information found.
Black colored body. Two fingers of mocha brown head, which retreats to islands and a thin ring. Leaves behind a few scattered spots of lacing.
Aroma of chocolate malts and vanilla.
Taste is chocolate malts, a bit of vanilla, with dark unsweetened coffee. Not very sweet, and more in the vein of a chicory coffee (earthy and nutty). Slightly bitter finish.
Initially has a thin mouth feel, but gets thicker as the beer is swirled in the mouth. Okay carbonation.
Not what I expected, which was a sweetened stout, based on the ingredients of vanilla and lactose.
