Our Thoughts
Today we have "Kitka Stout" which is a Sweet or Cream Stout that could be compared to a Very strong Porter. At a ABV rating of 7.25 this beer hits you like a kick in the face, so watch yourself! This beer is for someone who want's somthing more than just an ale. A great beer for a cold day.
Sweet or Cream Stout
Sweet stouts, also referred to as cream stouts, have less roasted bitter flavor and a full-bodied mouthfeel. The style can be given more body with milk sugar lactose before bottling. Malt sweetness, chocolate, and caramel flavor should dominate the flavor profile and contribute to the aroma. Hops should balance and suppress some of the sweetness without contributing apparent flavor or aroma. The overall impression should be sweet and full-bodied.

ABV stands for Alcohol By Volume and is listed as a percentage and lets you know how much of your beer is alcohol and how much is other stuff.
IBU

Beer Fact of the Day
Stanford researchers found that beer bubbles create a gravity-defying loop. Bubbles head up in the center where frictional drag from the glass is less and down on the outside as the top gets crowded.
OMG... that sounds delicious.

We have a milk stout here in Omaha and it is delicious. It's different because it has a much darker color. This one looks very unique!
