Striped Horse

Stabled In Cape Town

First time trying the Milk Stout from craft brewer with entertaining logo that captured the eye, jumped out of the fridge into my hand, OK cooler weather with rain passing through I will give this one the taste test.

Beer description on their site Striped Horse Milk Stout "Expertly brewed, expect rich, sweet and intense flavours. A full-bodied beer, with a silky texture and creamy mouthfeel. For those looking for things a little less ordinary and a lot more premium!"

My taste tester: This beer is slightly sweeter, has silky texture, my brain found a licorice flavour my son did not, a pleasant beer to sip quietly.

Beer did not hold a foamy head for long, I found it creamy but slightly flat, my son found it too fizzy, now who is right, no clue, it really is up to an individuals taste, perhaps even mood on the day.

Well sized glass bottle 600ml with 6% alcohol volume, did not find it excessive in price either.

Health benefit of antioxidants carried in stout beers, perhaps make a habit of one every every so often is not such a bad idea.

Did You Know? 7th November is National Stout Day! Perhaps time to turn your eyes to a dark brew that has many health benefits as indicated in the link given here.
