Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro
Dark & delicious, America’s great milk stout will change your perception about what a stout can be.
Pouring hard out of the bottle, Milk Stout Nitro cascades beautifully, building a tight, thick head like hard whipped cream. The aroma is of brown sugar and vanilla cream, with hints of roasted coffee. The pillowy head coats your upper lip and its creaminess entices your pallet. Initial roasty, mocha flavors rise up, with slight hop & roast bitterness in the finish. The rest is pure bliss of milk chocolate fullness.

A craft beer classic and now quite widely available in Japan. I think it may also have been the first nitro craft beer without a widget in the can.
Damn that’s smooth and good.
Can at home, 1st January 2022. Pours a black beer, lovely off white nitro head. Aroma is dark chocolate, roasted malts. Taste is smooth as silk, milk and dark chocolate, roasted malts, slight sweet, then a roasted malty bitterness to balance. Effortlessly drinkable
Pours black with small beige head. Roasted malts, chocolate, coffee, lactose, some hazelnuts.
Can at Larry’s Beerfest. Poured black with a nitro tan head. Aroma of coffee, milk chocolate. Taste was bittersweet, chocolate, vanilla, roast, coffee, creamy.
Frisch gezapft. Schwarz mit großer Schaumkrone und leichter Trübung. Intensive Kaffeearomen. Etwas Schokolade. Cremig im Antrunk. Gut ausbalanciert. Süßlicher Abgang. Sehr gelungen!
16 oz. can, pours black with a large cascading beige head. Aroma brings out dry cocoa, oats, and some earthy notes. Flavour is gentle, with lactose, earthy coffee, and a touch of dry cocoa. Smooth and creamy, with a chocolatey, earthy coffee finish. Good stuff.
Pours black with an amber hue and a thick creamy tan head. Aroma of roasted coffee with a touch of lactose. rich and creamy thanks to the nitro. Notes of chocolate and toffee. Very sweet with a bitter finish.
Coffee flavor combined with chocolate is the main thing that stands out about this beer. Very nice aftertaste. Well done!
Pours very dark brown with a typical nitro head that looks like steamed milk on coffee. Kinda watery overall, flavor of coffee stands out, brief light, clean finish.
13.65 oz can. Pours a beautiful dense black brown with a perfect dense tan stout head. Nice smells of toasty malts with lactose underlying. Sweet and creamy with a nice lightly oily mouthfeel and a dry finish where the roasts show up. Proper (sweet) stout.
Didn't seem to have the same nitro effect as some cans but still had some. Dark brown almost black with a brown nitro effect. Aroma was roasted grains and mocha. Taste was nitro creamy mocha.
Pint cans from a sampler box. Nose lovely chocolate and roast, milky, really phenomenal. Pour mid-brown with a creamy tan nitro head. Feel smooth and watery light body but again, nitro-smooth and creamy. Taste medium-sweet with light bitterness, milky-creamy with a hint of alcohol (but very little) and a hint of tang (less than traditional Guinness). Very little caramel but still has a candy-chocolate character, and again, incredibly smooth and repeatable. [2021.05.26: 4.0]
My mother in law’s favorite beer. So smooth, nice flavor, little sweet and a very good porter.
Pours dark brown with a tall, creamy head. Rich chocolate malt, lactose aroma. Nice malty flavor; chocolate, sweet, milk, cocoa. Roasted malt, lightly bittersweet finish. Full bodied, creamy feel. Excellent.
Can. Dark brown with huge, persistent beige head. Aroma of chocolate, nougat. Sweet taste with chocolate, nougat, light coffee, nuts. Nice one.
Appearance: black; 1” creamy head
Taste: hint of coffee; slight hoppy aftertaste
4/9/21 - Near Kitchen + Bar ; snifter glass
Old rating from 2016 - 330ml bottle brought back from NYC, pours black with a off white head. Aromas & tastes of brown sugar, vanilla, chocolate, lactose, coffee, caramel & roasted malt. Medium body. Very smooth creamy finish
Chocolate malt, ash, and hay aroma. Dark brown with large tan head. Mildly sweet milk chocolate malt, and mildly bitter ash and hay flavor. Good body.
12 ounce bottle from Total Wine Brookfield, 3/14/21. Dark brown, thin dense nitro head. Aroma of roast, dark chocolate, lactose. Taste is roast, cocoa, lactose, caramel. Medium bodied. Nice beer, as expected.
Can to glass -. Pretty nitro pour! Nose is heavy roast, nuttiness. Super velvety feel. Nuts, cocoa and lacto prevail from here.
Bottle from HEB in Austin, TX. Aroma is roasted malts, mild dog hair, chocolate cereal. Taste is dry cocoa, roasted grains, smooth mouthfeel, nice bitterish finish. Fine overall but I’ve admittedly never fully appreciated the milk stout.
Bottle. Malty aroma ans taste, chocolate, roastyness, light coffee notes, lactose, light sweet notes, medium bitter. Medium body, malty chocolate bitter sweet finish with lactose notes. Very good.
Excellent
Pint Can. Pours a dark brown with a large nitro head. Taste is of chocolate, roasted malt, coffee and tobacco. Has a roasted chocolate aroma. Has a smooth body with a bitter and slight dry finish. Overall, very drinkable and quite enjoyable. Well worth picking up again.
Roasty, smooth and creamy
This is now my wife’s and my go-to stout. Very nutty and soft and gentle on the palate. Love the cascade too.
(bottle 12 fl.oz. from Americanbeer.cz online shop) Overall: Good milk stout, well fits the style.
Aroma: Roasty, light sweet.
Appearance: Deep black. Medium, light brown head.
Taste: Light sweet, lactose, light roasty, chocolate.
Palate: Medium body. Silky texture. Astringent finish.
Lahvové zakoupeno přes internetový obchod americanbeer.cz. Pravděpodobně nejlepší milk stout co jsem kdy ochutnal. Podrobnosti později.
Dark as night... nice foamy head, nitro pour. Smell is vanilla cream, lactose.. some malt. Taste is malt, alcohol, cream, vanilla.... A touch bitter on the backend. Great beer.
Big can into stout glass. Pitch black with thick foamy tan nitro head. Aroma of chocolate malt. Silky smooth mouthfeel. Nice roasted chocolate malt taste. Mild bitterness. Lighter and not as oily or slick as heavy imperial stouts. Very nice
