Lactose not in a stout/porter

[timrox1212]

Have you ever used lactose in a beer that wasn't a stout/porter or dark beer. Like have you used it in a pale ale or a blonde? Just wondering, I've never seen it used anywhere but dark beers.

Yes. I've seen lactose backsweeten lots of things, including meads. Cigar City makes a beer called horchata that's basically a cream ale with cinnamon and nutmeg backsweetened with lactose.
