Left Hand Milk Stout nitro:
Greetings fellow travelers and drinkers of the beer world and welcome to a beer review for America. Yes friends, you read that right, for America, and since this is “America’s Stout” we should honor it with a review. Now I’m not sure where the whole claim that this is “America’s Stout” came from but it’s on the label and since when has a labeled lied to us? Wait, don’t answer that otherwise we’ll be here all day. Left Hand Brewing’s Milk Stout is one of my favorite beers out there with it’s wide versatility as well as its clean and smooth taste. Now take the whole nitro phenomenon, add that to it and you’ve got a beer that went from being a solid “A” to an “A+” and there is still plenty of room to grow. So a quick refresher to y’all who are curious about the whole Nitro in beer thing: Nitrogen- instead of carbon dioxide- is used to pressurize a beer and gives the beer a smoother taste and a much more foamy appearance (in other words, it turns a beer in to a Guinness Draught style beer). I won’t droll on about the taste of the beer other than it’s super creamy with a medium body and a nice malty finish. I still haven’t been able to detect the sweetness in this beer but do I really need too in a beer this good? Find yourself a six pack or, even better find it on-tap, and enjoy.
