Chocolate Milk Stout Recipe: Method and Tasting – Brew Dudes

Homebrew Beer Recipes
Chocolate Milk Stout is dark, roasty and luscious.

John made this beer to fit in with the nights that are beginning to get colder while also having something special to mature as we get closer to year end.

John brewed this stout with lactose and cacao nibs from OliveNation to enhance the flavor profile beyond the base stout.

Another twist in this stout is that John DID NOT use roasted barley as some may adhere to traditionally.

We loved this one and it will certainly be even better in a few more weeks, perhaps years.
