Tom Green Cherry Milk Stout

History & Style

Stouts made with milk sugar (lactose) were introduced in the late 19th century. The lactose in a milk stout is not consumed by yeast during fermentation, lending a mild sweetness to the resulting beer. Beau’s first brewed The Tom Green Beer! milk stout in 2013. Many of Tom’s early career antics involved cows and milk, which led to the idea of making a milk stout together.

Tasting Notes

Tom Green Cherry Milk Stout pour black-brown with garnet highlights and an off-white head. The aroma offers dark malt notes reminiscent of mochaccino, coupled with sweet, fruity cherry inflections. The flavour imparts dark chocolate and dark roast coffee, offset by sweet dessert-like cherry intonations. The finish echoes with lingering dark malt and cherries.

Food Pairings

Grilled sweet cherry, sausage and Asiago cheese bites; Szechuan beef with sticky rice; chocolate & cherry pancakes with maple syrup; chocolate-dipped cream puffs.
