Product details

What happens when your favorite childhood indulgence grows up? It gets even better. Pour yourself a rich, frothy glass of Chocolate Milk Stout and find out for yourself. This delicious drink is DEFINITELY not for the kids.

Packed with the best ingredients, our Chocolate Milk Stout recipe kit delivers a milk stout brewed with lactose sugar for body and residual sweetness, then laced with pure cacao nibs in secondary. The lactose is unfermentable by yeast, so it adds a milky, creamy, rich sweetness and lots of body. To make it even more irresistible, we load it with exotic cacao nibs, the seeds that give us chocolate. Unrefined as they are, cacao nibs bring light fruity notes, sumptuous delicate chocolate, and hints of earth to your hand-crafted brew.

Look for an opaque ebony pint capped with dark foam and a flavor reminiscent of straight espresso laced with chocolate liqueur and sweetened with turbinado sugar. Very full-bodied, round, and filling with bittersweet hints around the edges. Excellent as a nourishing restorative or even as an ice cream topping. You're a grown-up now. You call the shots.

Not Chocolaty enough, but not aged all the way either

This bear is very nice & malty, but we thought the chocolate should have come through a little more, relative to similar Stouts & Porters we have tried. On the other hand, it still needs a good bit more aging time, so perhaps that will bring out more of the right flavors. Otherwise, we are still debating on whether we would try to add more Chocolate Nibs or just some straight Cocoa on a future batch. Otherwise, this is a very nice & easy stout.

First Brew - Great Start

Given this was my first homebrew, extract stout seemed to be the right place to start. Process was straight forward, and basic equipment does the job. Watching the fermentation process and being able to crack my own cold beer has me hooked. All-in-all, good experience, taste is good, and will be doing it again, although all-grain instead of extract.

Recommendations:
1. If you bottle, use priming sugar. The priming drops didn't fit all of my bottles and had to be slightly crushed for a bit of a sticky mess. Using one drop per bottle did not result in good carbonation, two drops in grolsch bottles (to prevent bottle bombs) was better. Fortunately, one of my FB Marketplace buys included priming sugar that I experimented with for a much better result. (If the carbonation would have hit the mark, this would have been a 5-star review)
2. Use a bag or basket for hops. Pitching directly to the wort can result in debris that will settle out during the fermentation. A hop basket will be integrated into my brew process and will be purchased in the near future.
3. For new brewers, be patient. The next batch will be better because you can enjoy your brew while you brew!
