This is a recipe from Arizona's first Brewpub

Just had this Milk Stout at an open house at the Home Brewer's Connection in Tempe AZ and it was "to die for" good!

It's getting brewed here this weekend.

You gotta try it!

OH Wow! I think I shall give that one a shot as well. I bet it is "to die for".

Has anyone tried this recipe or any other milk stouts that are worthwhile?

I just had a milk stout tonight from a microbrew and it was excellent!

heres one i did this year. Been in the keg for 2ish weeks, and it's great

9lb 2-row
1 lb chocolate malt
10 oz roasted barley
1 lb lactose

1 oz nuggett @ 60 min.

S-04


you could drop the lactose down, but we like the sweet in the finish, and the chocolate malt really comes through too.

YMMV

I brewed this one:

It's in secondary right now, the sample from primary was pretty spot on for Left Hand's.

How did it turn out Chunks?

I recently brewed it as well. It is dead on.

Actually really great...was very surprised when the FG ended up around 1.030, making it a smooth 3.9-4% ABV, but worked out very well. Taste was good at 1.5 weeks, has gotten really good at 4 weeks.

It's official, I'm hooked. :)
