Another from the Mikkeller box, obviously you can see from the name this is a milk stout, so it has lactose in it. This one I've seen around a lot, so I presume it is one of their core or more common ones. I served this chilled.

Appearance: A really deep black, so deep that light doesn't even penetrate. The head is a latte colour, starts off thick but thins quickly leaving a thick lacing.
Aroma: A mild but lovely mix of sweet vanilla, raspberries and coffee.
Flavour: Chocolate with some sweet raspberry icecream. There is also a slight herbal element in it. There is also a small amount of coffee-like acidity.
Body: Super smooth, with a thin vail of carbonation.
Aftertaste: Even more sweeness, coupled with a oatmilk like flavour.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 7, very nice, but it seems to be mainly sweetness with not much complexity.
Price Range: Another from the box of 10 I got for £14 (usually £29), so it works out at £1.40 for a 330ml bottle, a very good price, but not something you want to drink often.
Food Pairings: As it's sweet I think it's more like a dessert beer, personally I would pair it with a trifle, especially one heavy on the fruit.
