A milk stout gets its name from the use of milk sugar (lactose) added during the boil to add sweetness and a creamy, full mouthfeel. This recipe produces a 5.8% stout that is a beautiful balance of sweetness, bitterness and roasted coffee/caramel maltiness accompanied by the velvet mouthfeel milk stouts are known for. The included brew sheet has directions for altering the sweetness as desired.
