I have a beer that I love and have made several times - a chocolate coconut porter. On the last batch I decided to make it a little creamier and put some lactose into the batch.
Does this make it a stout? It probably doesn't make it "anything" in BCJP guidelines, but I am curious on your thoughts.
I like the beer's tastes enough to enter it into a contest, but I am sure I will get just blasted on having lactose in a porter and not having it true to style. I don't know what I'd then enter it under.
