Duels & Duets is our imperial milk stout with locally roasted Casas Coffee and vanilla. Smooth roastiness is balanced with aromatic coffee and a hint of sweetness.

Light black body, two fingers of tan foam. Lighter roast coffee, vanilla, sugar, chocolate syrup, and slight caramel in the nose, fine but nothing that stands out. Taste is a frothy version of the smell but with some soil, cream, and malt added. Feel is frothy, creamy, lighter and somewhat airy. It's a fine stout, but nothing worth hunting

16oz can, dare stamped 1/8/20. Cola colored stout with a foamy tan head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, vanilla, and lactose. Sweet flavors of chocolate, vanilla, coffee, caramel, lactose, mild roast, brown sugar, molasses, and modest earthy hop bitterness. Full creamy body, ample carbonation, alcohol is well concealed, sweet finish. A little too sweet for me.

Canned 1/8/20; drank 1/19/20 @ the Yarchives.
Black appearance.
A violent pour yielded a huge khaki head; a thick curtain of lace.
Cream, burnt black coffee, fresh earth & faint chocolate notes in the nose.
Creamy, medium thick mouthfeel.
Chocolate syrup, cream, burnt black coffee & fresh earth flavors. No booze heat.
Syrup-y with some flavors that clash rather than balance each other; not awful, but not very good either. I'll be avoiding this one.
